The title points to the moment of protest rather than the finish: a heat has been disputed, and someone is claiming a foul. Harness racing, in which horses pull light two-wheeled carts called sulkies, drew large crowds and heavy betting in nineteenth-century America, and contested results were common because collisions and crowded turns were hard for judges to see. Lithographs like this one turned such arguments into sporting drama, inviting viewers to study the jostling horses and the men at the center of the dispute.
