Magnus A Djuse and Fantom Jet were denied victory after a photo finish, leaving the star jockey visibly disappointed with Björn Goop.
"Of course, you're disappointed with a competitor who tries to squeeze into a gap that doesn't exist," says Djuse.
The favorite, Fantom Jet, had a tough journey in the second lane but was on the verge of claiming victory in the fifth division of the V75 series.
However, after the photo finish, it was clear that the surprise winner Nightrain Boko and Rick Ebbinge emerged victorious.
Afterwards, Magnus A Djuse criticized Björn Goop, who, according to Djuse, attempted to enter a non-existent gap. Goop, along with his horse Julius Cortina, was trailing the leader.
"Of course, you're disappointed with a competitor who tries to squeeze into a gap that doesn't exist," Magnus A Djuse told TV12.
"That's not something I or many others would have done. But everyone is different," he continued.
Björn Goop, on his part, did not share the same view of the situation.
"He moves out, and of course, I take the gap then, I want to move forward. That's just how it is," says Goop.
