I had a little something on the winner. After watching the replay again and then a few more times going over the wire, I still think it got beaten half a head.
Obviously a wickedly bad camera angle there.

Are you watching the AHR video replay Bob, cos' the replay I am watching off the AHR site cuts out halfway down the straight, but from memory I also thought Elegant Image got the win (pretty clearly) and I am sure that's how the caller saw it, then Sky had to cut straight to a dog race. After that race the studio presenter came back and said Kyvalley Blur had won in a photo. Totally agree with you about that angle, blew me away. My interest in the race lasted 5 seconds, Amore Stride went up in the air down the back the first time and so did my hard earned!
I saw the race live on sky and it looked like Elegant Image had won ! It's very sus that they doctored the replay. If it's all above board just show the public the photo finish ! If a mistake was made then investigate it don't try and hide it !
Sure they had Elegant Image's number in the frame as the winner, but it seemed a bit quick for a close finish. Thought I was seeing things a bit later when looking at all of the results for the nights racing.
The full replay is up and it does look like the inside runner got up but I am sure the Gath's would have satisfied themselves that they were actually beaten. It is interesting to compare the finish with the 8th where Magical Telf just got up by a HFHD and in the replay he DOES look to have got up, while this does not appear to be the case in the Trotters Mile
Mustang Mach and Mah Sish were a DH for 8th in the Cup. It looks like there was neck in it.
and a great point Kev re Magical Telf. It's the same camera angle, Telf by half a head looks spot on = Elegant Image by half a head.
