I note you didn't watch the race or follow the process closely.
Where does it state in the rules that separate incidents consitute separate inquiries?
Regardless in this case both the second and third horse were protesting against the first horse for the same incident. Before you get even more pedantic a single incident doesn't have to be a single point in time.
From the Stipes Report which is readily available online:
Following the running of this race connections of the second placed horse AUTUMN GLORY and the third placed horse GENEVA lodged protests alleging interference over the concluding stages against the first placed horse ROAD TO PARIS. After viewing films and considering submissions the Adjudicative Committee dismissed both protests with placings standing 1st ROAD TO PARIS, 2nd AUTUMN GLORY, 3rd GENEVA, 4th WIGMORE.
Of course perspective will go completely out the window here.
