Anyone catch this race???

I had to rub my eyes to see if I was seeing things. I've never seen that before.

Horse's name is Altar de Oro.

This description does it no justice, but I will try anways. I suggest watching it on replay.

Entering the turn for home, the 3 horse (AdO) was well in the lead when he took a bad step. Horse shuffled back to mid/back of the pack (it looked like the jock was pulling him up). The horse then got into gear again, and flew by all of them in the stretch, only to take a few more bad steps nearing the wire. Held on for the win, not sure if there will be an objection or what...Just a very wierd race to watch.

Just caught the replay..What the hell?!!! I don't think I have ever seen that before myself! From the looks of it Mancilla may have been trying to get him to change leads or something.. (I never saw him take a bad step)Thats the only thing I can gather...VERY strange indeed. I don't have the P.P's..Has that idiot ridden the horse before?
