Reminds me of the old days at Maywood when the bell didn't go off until the horses had almost hit the first turn. The $50 window tellers were working solely for a few people with 1mtp or less. The bettor would call the horse that got off the gate the best and the teller would punch as many $50 win tickets as possible.
The biggest fixes were when the horse that left the gate quickest and got the lead broke stride in the first turn.
Flukey Stokes, Buddy Bear, Willy The Wimp. Those boys ruled the clubhouse.

I'm sure that in the old days past posting happened with a far more frequent degree than it does now.
