Years ago, at Finger Lakes, an enormous show bet was made on an obvious favorite, however this horse was half of an entry. The ENTRY MATE bumped another horse hard mid back stretch, almost knocking him down, while the favorite cruised to an easy win.
Rules of racing: what part of an entry does affects the the parimutuel on BOTH. So, the entry was DQ'd to fifth (have to be placed behind the horse that the 1A interfered with)
