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.

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

That's a sickener that's for sure.

Sadly they dont have irish photo finishes on that website but its really good and photos are posted up really quickly.
|
|
By:
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.
|
|
By:
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 |
|
By:
the line can only be put on the winners nose as thats what the mirror image shows as they past the mirror
|
|
By:
some of the stuff you read on here is so laughable you worry about how these people cope with day to day life
|
|
By:
Very naive some people imo
Same people that think everything is straight and corruption only happens in other places |
|
By:
and some people think everything's a conspiracy
|
|
By:
surely both horses had nosebands?
|
|
By:
yes they did
|
|
By:
They both had tails too
|

By:

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? |

By:
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 |

By:
"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 ...
lombie • April 29, 2013 3:22 PM BST Screen-grabbed the photo. The nose-banded horse is shown first, can see it clearly in my eyes. Wrong horse called the winner. Poppydog. • April 29, 2013 3:24 PM BST 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 upTongue Out |
|
By:
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 |
