When there is a photo finish the course commentator has to say photograph twice.

If a horse ridden by someone who is termed 'champion jockey' wins in a photo it's because of the jockey -if it loses it's because the horse wasn't good enough.
Addendum A to this law - The loser only got so close because of the jockey. Addendum B to this law - If a lesser known jockey wins in a photo it was a poor ride but the horse got him/her out of trouble |
