This is VERY old news. When I took the trouble decades ago, I would spot errors nearly every day.

 A popular one was a dropped digit somewhere in the field, so a 5th By 11 became 5 by 1 , making anyone 6th or worse 10 lengths closer than they were.

 Im sure Jerrys spotters catch errors all the time.

I\'m puzzled. The chart shows the triple payoff on the 1,7,2 and your photo is of the 2,3,9. Sure this is the same race?

[elkurzhal]

Not mine, but the photo is the show photo.

Sorry, for the old news, guess the search function doesn\'t go back decades...

[Boscar Obarra]

Uh, not about the search function. Point was , if you want to find discrepancies in the charts , you could probably find quite a few if you took the time.

 This one is just getting \'play\'

[JR]

My bad. Didn\'t read the header.

Turns out the chart callers transposed the stretch call with the finish call and it was corrected quickly but obviously not quick enough to avert the initial incorrect chart and some embarrassment. The figures derived there from use the correct data.
