The #4 was the horse bridgejumped. The photo was called and posted on the board before the horses had turned around. No photo finish was ever shown on the tv feed.

Not saying Charles Town did anything wrong ... but if you're going to be calling photos that incredibly tight before the horses are even turned around...it's probably a good idea to bother and show the photo finish picture.

At least they showed the head-on replay and the will-pays though! Some smaller tracks can't always manage to do that.
OUCH!

The jumper probably went from extreme to opposite extreme in the matter of a minute. Extremely relieved that his horse held 3rd soon became extremely sickened to the stomach that he got edged out. Sort of like the guys from For-Ay Stables when they lost the shake for Mon Gateux!
