"it was established that the Judging officials had mistaken the nose of Luverboy for the nose of Manly Boy and as a consequence ‘all clear’ was given on the incorrect placings."
Hard to understand when one horse had its head up and the other down
A massive stuff up which was corrected too late for the backers of the $1.10 favourite

Lets hope those officials get a suspension or sent to an eye specialist .
I have been reminded that it is not an easy gig, sometimes they are not doing just one job and if there is no semaphore board they are timing and god knows what else - all the while with the TAB wanting results ASAP
(How can it be that we STILL do not have semaphore boards at every meet)
Their next jobs will e doing score reviews in the AFL.
As Messenger said jobs like these aren't an easy gig. Never know what's going on behind the scenes, I have it on good authority the AFL score reviewers are forced to wear blindfolds so there you go, don't be so hard on themQuote:

This requirement has been reintroduced with the approval of the HRV Board acting on a recommendation from the HRV Integrity Department following a review into the incorrect placings being declared for Race 2 at Hamilton on 2 August 2019.
