Did some video work in the Santa Anita Sprint Championship. It appears to me that all the fractions and final times are about 0.50 seconds too fast.
Attached are two images, the first a baseline I use for proper timing of 6f races. When I backed up the video from the finish line by the final time, you can see the horses are pretty much right at the 6f pole. That is where they should be.
The second image is the race Saturday, a G1 race with Breeder's Cup implications. Pretty clearly they are well past the point as in the first image. The difference doesn't look like a lot visually, but it makes a big difference in a 6f horse race.
