watch horse races for 33 years and doubt if I could. Im very interested how you can tell difference on the video

i think you could tell the difference in GR1's from 5K claimers if you've been watching that long. cheap horses don't look as fluid, have shorter strides in the stretch, etc. if the classes were closer, like gr3 vs. allowance, or higher claimers vs allowance, i agree that without any visual cues it would be hard to know the difference.
