Backfired at Finger Lakes a few years back....half the entry at 1/9, wired and won by opn lengths (and a few bridge jumpers took a BATH parimutuelly) when 1A almost knocked another down down the backstretch (that horse finished 5th as a result)..

Inquiry came up, and by the rules of racing, the entry had to be placed BEHIND the horse bothered by the OTHER half. Tote board lite up like a Chrismats tree as SHOW priced DWARFED the win payouts
