Just awful.
Funny post ... 1 MPH.

Reminds me of a race I played at Northfield sometime ago. The 3 horse in the stretch was literally "walking" to the finish line. My friend and I would always kid about horses "walking" home, but in that case it was true. The slowest I've ever seen a horse in a race was that night.

Had a $1 pick 5 with that 7 to the 5 in the 10th. Cost me $3000

I watched that replay 4 x. Still don't see anyway the 9 won....

Gotta love the Green finish line in their supposed photo. Where was that photo taken? 8 yards after the real finish?

Do jocks know the difference between a 23 second quarter mile and a 24 or 25 second Q?

Ouch your pain is worse, Im just a Win bettor. Might be one of my closest losses.

Immediately watching the replays after they crossed, I knew it was incredibly close and almost thought it was a DH.

Great call by Maggie in the last race saying she liked the 8...and even gave a subtle push to the 5 horse who missed in a heartbreaking photo.

Had a win bet on the 5 and thought i won watching it live. I'm pretty sure they'll show the photo that will conclusively show the 8 really won the race..

i needed the 1 for 3rd to hit the tri, looked like the 5 crashed into him angling out late...probably an optical illusion.

He tipped out after trying to squeeze into a hole that wasn't there. And still had a ton of horse. Or so It looked. Very annoying.
