THIS absolutely astonishing end to a horse race saw shocked punters cry: "I've never seen a horse finish that fast!"
Lala K defied the odds to swoop home from miles out the back of the screen in stunning style in Seoul, South Korea.
Video of the finish has gone viral online and left one punter saying it could be 'the best win in the history of horse racing'.
Trailed off at the back and seemingly out of it completely, the three-year-old mare disappeared out of shot at one point.
Commentator Alastair Middleton wasn't joking when he said, roughly a furlong and a half from home, that the horse had 'plenty to do'.
But from somewhere the 4-1 horse found the afterburners and scorched home on the dirt surface, eventually returning a cosy two-length win.
