Think it was all in the head bob and where the actual finish/photo line is which seems to be just before the actual 'finish line pole/column'. I had the 11 today in race 10 (The Gallorette) for W/P and Exacta with the 9 but not the 12. I never dreamed the 11 (at 70/1) had actually gotten up for 2nd but the head bob won it for me. I watched the replay on livestream.com and they posted the photo which I had to stare at until I realized the 11's head was down and in front of the 12 by about one nostril.

BTW, I also had Cherry Wine W/P and in the 2nd spot for tri and exacta....can't believe I hit two longshots like that today on the wire.

There was over a million bet on Nyquist to place - who knows how much more in exotics. The camera race camera is positioned after the finish line so you are looking at an angle. You would think that they could post it on their website like many top tier tracks do....

I can't find it either.
From the video it is tough to determine which nose got there first.
Why the photos are not published is a mystery.

They did show the photo at the track of course. It was close but clear that Cherry Wine got the nod.
