No, I don't think there is any consistency to stewards decisions, even on the same circuit. I won't pretend to know all the rules, but based on the calls I've seen made (and not made), the same infraction is often adjudicated differently from day to day.

Honestly, I don't see the views being any better than they were 20 years ago. Some tracks don't even have "straight" head on views, particularly on turf. They pictures aren't that clear, not like the cameras are HD. And, there are still plenty of blind spots.

Check out the feed from Atlantic City for a look back in time.
You can barely make out individual horses on the head on

I said 20 years ago. AC hasn't run a real meet in longer than that I'm sure.

Look at AC's video in 2014 and see what we used to see everywhere. They are still using 1980's technology over there. We are spoiled now

Again, I said 20 years, not the 80s. Watch the Fox1 broadcasts and then watch the stewards views and tell me how spoiled we are again.
