First, it was taken off the race before post time, so that should have ruled out the "all" provision. The problem is it was done so close to post time that many people didn't know or didn't have time to adjust.
Second, it was changing it to an all well after the race was run.
There really was no easy answer. Mistakes were made for sure, and probably in the end the fairest decision was made. It was the timing on both fronts that needs work.
