PE Race 7???

The video shows clearly that the appie looses his right rein and leans to the left trying to straighten Blaze of Fire up and. Burlaine Forest comes off the rail into The Shark,s path and they squeeze him out....

but that's not the subjective bit ................they did not have the 400m to finish time...............more proof that things are not always what they seem to be.
This is just another case which supports the view that rules need to be more clear cut to improve consistency

According to the law of physics The Shark can have a faster 400m to finish time than Blaze of Fire but Blaze of Fire can still finish in front of it. Altough The Shark acceleration is faster than Blaze of Fire, remember Blaze of Fire has already built up a lead so The Shark has to cut into Blaze of Fire lead in certain amount of time and only in 400m while Blaze of Fire can run in a costant acceleration and win cos of the lead he built up, in essence his covering a lesser distance cos he has already passed the 400m mark.

That said horses are not machines.

Einstein moment. Hawk Eye combined with sectional timing and splits can give us a projected path of the horses in question and the speeds of the horses. Technology of the future. Singapore, Hong Kong, France and Dubai will be using this idea in their objections or stewards inquiry as they say soon. Trust me.

Btw I think I saw computer animations of the races run last year on Dubai World Cup night immediately after each race.

The injustice here is that if any other Jock was on The Shark i am sure at least 1 of the objections would have been upheld....:S
