Yeah, it's difficult to see through the fog! (Sorry James, made me smile and couldn't resist! )

Glad to see the photo finish technology up at Newcastle is sound.

Apparently the far side won. Backed the winner in the photo market at average 6.6 odds. Was surprised to get the full win after it dragged on for 5+ mins. Thought a dead heat was nailed on.

Chelmsford 16:10. NRs - Churchill's Spirit (IRE) (Withdrawn), Klammer Express (GB) (reared and unseated rider start)

Since when did we start calling these non-runners?

That's a crappy image, it's not even a line scan camera.

I think they forgot to switch on the finish line lights.

There was a rule change a little while ago that they can be retrospective if the horse wasn't given a fair chance to start.

I thought that was specifically for flag starts in NH races where the starter has not offered a runner a fair start?

Dingwall was left stuck in the stalls in the 16:30 @ Wolves yesterday but ended up winning the race. Didn't see him getting ruled a non-runner. You can't have horses getting a free bite at the cherry.

Dangle of the week in the Newcastle 12:15.

Plenty of 1.4 available after the slo-mo on the winner (far side).

£640 traded @ 1.01 on the second too, a few yards before the line.
