I can't speak of horse racing myself, but I have seen plenty of calls in the NFL that either should have been called, were called but ify, and others that were non calls because the refs saw both players doing the same thing.

If anyone does understand the call in this race, feel free to explain it too me.

You're not allowed to bang your horse into another horse, which is what happened.  If you were leading in a footrace and tripped the person running second, you'd be disqualified.  Same thing.
