Kiwon Waldron celebrated victory after an extraordinary three-way dead heat in harness racing action at Harrah's Hoosier Park in Indiana.
Competing in Race Two of the Pace class, the Bermudian guided Stop The Vanity to the finish in an official time of 1:54.0, with the top three horses crossing the line inseparable.
The finish was so close that race officials were forced to review the photo finish before confirming the result.
After examining the image, officials declared a rare three-way dead heat, with Stop The Vanity, driven by Waldron, El Jute, piloted by Atlee Bender, and Clear Guidance, with Marcus Miller in the bike, all sharing the victory.
The remarkable outcome highlighted the fiercely competitive nature of the race, with none of the three drivers able to be separated even after a detailed review of the finish-line photograph.
For Waldron, the shared victory marked another strong performance on the competitive Indiana harness racing circuit, adding a memorable result to his campaign in one of the sport's rarest finishes.
