It might not matter until the video display package and tote system are updated/automated/integrated more thoroughly. Now, there is STILL going to be a slight lag from the final flushes of the system and how they appear on screen. If horses stay in that same order ALL THE WAY around, the prices could be completely different than what was shown THE ENTIRE RACE.

I was careful to note that I did not think it was a conspiracy in my intial post, but after scandals in racing, in particular the BC Cup of '01 and various Pick 4s of that year, racing needs to do everything possible to keep even the perception of chicanery from happening.
