I remember them calling for second and even third photos before confirming a DH.
Has technology improved enough to negate that?
I would like to see that photograph....watching it live I thought the favorite won, the slow-mo imo showed the de Kock horse won ....so as you say technology must have improved a lot for them to be calling that one so quickly :ohmy:
And not that he would care one iota, but Mr Tarry is fast becoming my least favorite trainer

R1) Odd Rob (8/10), despite the price being short, this horse has never cracked a decent draw but has still managed to be competitive. Shouldn't have problems with the distance nor the going, if anything, should really appreciate the 1800m. Hard seeing this one being beaten.
R3) Spider Flower (28/10), going to take on the favourite, Captured Quality (2/1) for two reasons. Firstly has raced over the distance and finished a close up, and secondly, has a decent draw and tends to race handy, so I'm hoping he can get there for nothing. The favourite, guess the stable believe she will get the distance without too much fuss, but I'm not going to back her to find out.

Thanks, good to get it right and sometimes half right from time to time
Guessing has never been widely acclaimed as a good gambling strategy.
