Title: Did the winner of Race 15 at Northfield on Tuesday break around the final turn?

Sure looked like it, but I want the experts to confirm it. There was no hint of an inquiry, and they got out of Dodge in a hurry.

First off excellent catch.  tmbz1

Not an entire breaking gallop not an entire clean looking run.

Rewatch it and it's like an optical illusion, something isn't all right and you can't claim foul. Already around the turn looks like a weak short gallop, watch it again it kind of passes the muster.

9 year old finishing in 30 3/5 off a 155 3/5 mile whose spaghetti legs were sputtering and AM had him all out.
