"Stop the race": it wouldn't be official if the race were stopped on the backstretch, would it? Why do people yell this?

And what of the guys who feel so self-important when they call a photo finish before seeing the official result, but don't have a wagering say in the outcome? Congratulations, you have great eyesight, bud.
No, he wantedthe horse out of the money. I heard what his ticket was.

some of the kids here say 'snap' as in you just got embarrassed in some way. you know, like if one of your buddies insults you, your other buddies say 'oh snap'.

but not quite sure where that would work anywhere involving a race. unless of course you were hollering it at bernardini after invasor winked at him and went by.
