You understand that satellite OTB's have to resend the information, let alone get the actual scratch. It isn't like they wait for people to cancel bets like at other tracks, they gate scratch, and if they don't have to move anyone (like the 3rd race), they just let it roll.

There was a delay after the scratches of a few minutes. The odds are cycled on 45 second clips which means this is more than two cycles in during a 2 mile race. It shouldn't happen. If you watch the replay you can see when the odds are reflected changed on Lord Kipling when he's on the backstretch the second time.
