Correct. Refer to my post re breeders cup. There were are lot more dead heats prior to the digital age because they did not have the technical accuracy. Much clearer today however if as other posters have suggested the trackside camera is not in line but past the post then that surely is a case to declare a dead heat. Disclosure, watched, highly enjoyable, but did not bet on the race, so not talking from my pocket -
The question Curious is, WHY do NZTR want to close down that track. The new road replacing the dodgy gorge makes it an easy destination to travel to and from. Top trainers from the past domiciled themselves there. Why is it now surplus to requirements. The most recent NZTR venue plan gives insight into their intention "We will continue to race at Woodville until the venue plan is next reviewed in 2029 UNLESS the status and role of Woodville Racecourse needs to be reviewed prior to then to reflect any changes in relation to it or the racing landscape more generally." That is a fate pre decided, with legal weasel words wrapped around it to give them a dollar each way. Hastings and Awapuni fuck ups has put a spike in their vindictive intentions however I do not know what the long standing country club that is Woodville has done to deserve this treatment.

Correct. The camera angle favours the inside horse. There is only one angle that confirms the winner and that is with the photo finish camera. Seeing it did not operate for some unknown reason (was it turned on) a dead heat should have been declared imo. -
Agree, nor would they understand the concept of value, they would lose overall but be happy to get a collect. Put a figure on it, say 95%. The point is, lots of new punters are getting to know that the TAB exists because of sports, simply because there are many more followers of sport in NZ than racing. This must bring more exposure to racing and the point I was making in that the young want instant gratification, which racing offers with a race and potential collect over in 5-10 min -
