I can't say they're errors, but the timing on the turf lately at Belmont has seemed suspicious. A lot of slow early fractions with blazing late fractions. A lot of slow early paces that have collapsed as well. It just doesn't seem to pass the eye test, but trakus is backing up these times as well. 4th race today stands out as an example, a middle quarter slowing down to nearly 25 followed by a sub 22 quarter partially around a turn, I don't think I've ever seen a race like that. Anyone else questioning the accuracy or doing some self-timing lately to confirm a variety of these races? Obviously there are timing issues too often at almost every jurisdiction, just trying to figure out if something is being missed here as well.
