EVD's timer (or the person responsible for overseeing it) is the biggest joke in all of horse racing, right now.
A single card almost never goes by without an egregious error. And many cards have multiple races where the timer posts unbelievable times that defy all logic.
I'm not talking about subtle errors or questionable times...I'm talking about errors that are so crystal clear, even a clueless neophyte who started following racing three weeks ago, would know that the time is BS.

I'm guessing the timer is manually triggered, which believe it or not, still occurs at some tracks. And when I mean manually triggered, someone with a button watching the race is actually starting and stopping the timer based on their vision of the race and horses nearing poles.
Yes - this is actually still happening in some places...
