I like the first photo for a couple of reasons.
First in the second photo the horses seem to be running off of the page to nowhere. The spacing is just a bit off. Secondly the lighting in the first seems to be more dramatic with darkness on either side of the critical moment, the horses hitting the wire. Lastly, the first one shows the excitment of the critical moment better as it shows the crowd's reaction to the finish. I'd be proud of either photo, but I just think the first one captures "The Moment" a little better.

Here's a photo (below) in today's bloodhorse.com . It is credited to Skip Dickstein . Can anyone tell me how he can be in two different places at one time ? You can see the angle of the photo is from across the track from that of the Eclipse submission one . http://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-raci...for-hoy-honors
