I don't know if you're aware of this or not but
Chicks Are Better would've won the race if Hill didn't inexplicably switch the whip and CHANGE TO A NEW SET of GOGGLES a few strides before the wire, losing significantly enough momentum for the winner to go by. It was bad enough the horse didn't change leads but he only had a few more strides to the finish.
