that PHOTO is wrong...

RUK HAVE GOT to change their camera angles this is getting ridiculous now.

PP dont care

thats crazy.

Looks wrong to me as well

Scotswell won that!!

they put the line where they want!

Didn't the photo show SW in front!?

They seriously do need to look at that unless i'm seeing things

^
Yes!

Look at curlin, looked that way to me. Graham cunningham too busy loving the sound of his own voice to notice the photo

yes

scotswell was in front

TV makes the jockey look fatter & the horse look longer

looked like Scotswell in the photo to me (and i layed it)

the nose at the bottom belongs to the horse on top

just posted the same he's called it wrong

No it definitely showed Arctic Court in front, you got the noses mixed up

delta is fishing, anyone who thinks sw won needs glasses

How the hell have they given that race to Arctic Court???

cunningham cant pick the winner even after its crossed the line

chompy will eat well tonight, WD winnors

are you sure about that tho stevie, kept trying to see it that way but can't

Screen-grabbed the photo.

The nose-banded horse is shown first, can see it clearly in my eyes.

Wrong horse called the winner.

Even race officials have to eat

lombie is correct!

weighed in

I've changed my mind now and think it's called correct. Is very hard to see tho!

Check the replay.
Which horse had the s/skin noseband
That was the winner

I take that back.

Zoomed right in and had my horses heads mixed up

Can you post the photo lombie?

reviewed too and judge is right, optical illusion.

lombi lombi lie lie............who sang that?

You lot are blind if you think the 2nd won in that print

The photo definitely shows Arctic Court the winner - what I can't understand is how. It was at least a head behind as they crossed the line.

lombie is correct again!

how much at 1.01?

Initially I thought the wrong winner had been called but just before the photo went off screen you could see Arctic Court's nose poking out in front.

Having said that I think there was a quick bit of photoshopping going on there.

I fink that the form book will read........"Won in an optical illusion"

i wish they'd opened up the betting after the photo had been shown

lombie    thanks

Due the disagreement as to which horse has actually won Betfair are going to open up the photo betting again just so them who are not sure can have another go at predicting the winner.

thanks lombie...horse on the far side has a big head

That's a sickener that's for sure.

i wonder if owner of non winner  goes to Kelso races much

thanx paul.............................Im moor worried abt Dennises head missing

Sadly they dont have irish photo finishes on that website but its really good and photos are posted up really quickly.

Not quick enough  if you want to bet on it though

The problem with photos is that it seems the line can be put wherever it suits.

Agree ^

They will have a different still every millisecond. Can put the "photo" any place they want within reason

One dodgy photo every 6 months no questions asked

the line can only be put on the winners nose as thats what the mirror image shows as they past the mirror

some of the stuff you read on here is so laughable you worry about how these people cope with day to day life

Very naive some people imo

Same people that think everything is straight and corruption only happens in other places

and some people think everything's a conspiracy

surely both horses had nosebands?

yes they did

They both had tails too

Same people that think everything is straight and corruption only happens in other places

I certainly don't think everything is straight, but the suggestion that 'they' can choose where they take the photo and place the line is certainly beyond my thinking. Unless there is any evidence to the contrary?

Listen if they can put a man on the moon they can alter a photo finish.

It might well all be above board but to think these type things don't happen is just plain silly. Fk the biggest racing firm in the world has just been found out to be cheating, there is a jockey on trial for cheating today right now as we speak.

Where money and corruption is involved anything is possible

"They" have a lot to answer for

well said starfish and toffee...if backers did not lay off the 2nd...more fool them...

i mentioned the nosebands cos of comments like the following ...

jeez Mr Hunt, you are ever so helpful ...

The point that was illustrated that people misdirected by their memories made assumptions that were false (ie that only 1 horse had a noseband), hence the ridiculous furore over a clear-cut decision
