The favourite LA BELLE HELENE runs 11 lenghts behind the winner and there is no veterinary report stating that there was something wrong with this horse.
K. Niesius don't report to the stewards that there was something amiss with his mount. Surely the stipes should enquire from the jockey why the horse performed so poorly.

Intergrity my foot!
