I read a bunch of these after I posted...
What I saw on the replay was that they drew even, it certainly looked like the momentum was going Rahy's way, and he snapped that whip right between the eyes, Malibu threw his head around quite a bit... It was a real smack! Looking at the final margin of victory there is NO WAY to know how close that race would've been...I agree Rahy would've won but it could've been as little as a length if Malibu battled on...
Plus, the whole reason he was going to the left side in the first place was that Rahy, in addition to having some momentum, was drifting in at that point and needed to be straightened up... So Malibu suffered twice really, by having Rahy bear in on his path and THEN getting smacked.
