Just watched the replay several times. Slowed it down frame by frame, and it certainly looked like the inside horse held on even though the photo finish camera says otherwise.

Harrah's Philly has a weird camera angle at the finish line that favors the outside horse by alot. It's also possible the camera showing the race is on an angle.

Where’s the photo finish print that usually gets shown after the replay?  They don’t show it?

I've been going to that track for 35 or 40 years. The outside horse always gets it. The finish line is not straight across, more like a 45 degree angle like all 5/8 tracks. In other words not a straight line from the rail to the fence.

  • dougie: I don't really know a lot about Mike P. but I support his cause 100%. I admire his humanity toward these abused animals. I now know that there is a very minute number of people in harness racing who really care about their horses once they are not able to race/breed anymore. Those who don't carfe deserve their place in hell.
