Default track announcers

I play the Australian races nightly. When 2, 3 horses hit the line together, the announcers just about always calls the correct winner even when I can't tell whether I won or not.

When I listened to Aqueduct today, or Turfway last week, one horse wins by a neck or 1/2 length and all you get is "Too Close to Call!!" -- I'm sitting there thinking, "What race were you watching?"

The Aussie announcers even call the 7th, 8th, ...13th finishers although I don't know how accurate those are because once the first 4 horses are called, then who cares?
