A 1946 photo by Athol Smith, apparently taken in Austalia. An interesting sports rarity (although I do see other examples documented at Google Images).
Addendum: James of Bayswater identifies the event:
It was the 1956 Hotham Handicap run at Flemington - one of the principal lead up races to the Melbourne Cup and one only two triple dead heats recorded in Australia.Source unknown; found at First Time User.
#3 won.
