why are people calling for a dead heat Confused

if one horse has its head on the line and the other doesn't , then it wins

quite simple

On that still both horses are touching the line.  That's what casues people to be suspicious

Both had their nose on the line. The print doesn't show any gap at all. Anything that close should be a dead heat. I backed the other Johnston horse by the way!

minor point - but we are not looking at a print here, are we?.  We are looking at an image of a print, through a monitor which in all probability is not of the greatest resolution quality (e.g. PC Monitor). We know and have known for a long time that they have the ability make decisions on very very fine margins.

Report Facts May 23, 2015 3:18 PM BST
They magnify the image looking for a pixel gap, which becomes a win /lose by a nose. No gap - even when magnified = dead heat.
Report elise May 23, 2015 3:21 PM BST
i,ve blown up the image, the 2nds nose is def not on the line, but having said that i'm not entirely convinced the winners is either

spot on elsie  the bha photo appears to show a small green blur on both horses nose when magnified

top horse, appears to me that there is still a tiny contuation of the grass on the first pixel, maybe it's my eyes, the 2nd horse is clearly not on the line

i'm not convinced on the top one pablo, there are lines continuing from the other side of the white line and i can't convince myself that there is a contact point on the line, the second is absolutely clear i agree

carrot , i believe the green you are seeing IS the horses nose , just a different shade of colour/shine whatever from the rest of its head , as the ammount of nose i see on the line is very minimal . looks like its nose to me . i may wrong , but that's my view
