Enlightenment sought with explanation of "See Spot run."

I'm unable to see that this sentence contains an objective complement. 
 It
does contain a direct object:  "Spot run," an infinitive phrase.  I 
see no
objective complement.  "Spot" serves as the subject of the infinitive
"run."  Why would the phrase not appear on a single line that might
be raised over the direct object slot?
