O'Rourke did make a good point on At the Races about the modern glass design: getting sunlight into the north facing grandstand. Belmont was always a refrigerator once the weather turned and winter...

If Christopher Wren were picked as the architect for this project, I would also give him a wide berth.

For those of that love the racetrack and New York racing, this was much anticipated. I love the current Belmont Park, but it is showing its...

I do wonder what the networks think. I think we who love racing are a bit delusional as to the Triple Crown’s ability to sustain the public’s attention into the summer. As soon as Memorial Day comes...

You really think these horses can whip back in September and go 1 1/16th? Better put it in November for “safety.”

NYRA should tell 1ST to beat it. Stay put. The Preakness undercard is dreadful,...

I think recent spat of "change the Triple Crown" hysteria is based on a couple of bad years for the Preakness, which were completely out of anyone's control. Maximum Security's DQ and Country House...

Someone suggested the Met, which I thought was a great idea. In this day and age, however, the high weight (even Cody’s Wish) will probably be carrying 116 (jokes aside, 123?). Can they give him a...

I agree about the “track sore” concern. 10 months turns Belmont into Parx. While I’d be all for scrapping winter racing in NY, from what I understand that is not happening for a host of reasons. One...

Why would he run a horse like that in Matt Winn over such an unsafe surface (CD)?

He will not get huge imposts here, nor would weights in the 130's endanger his health. The point is moot as he would only have 1 handicap race left max before everything switches to weight for age...

What's wrong with the Haskell? It is often a tougher race than the Travers. Think last year when the Haskell had Curlin, Any Given Saturday, Hard Spun and Xchanger. What did the Travers have, but...

I think they need to switch back to Sidewalks of New York. The change is what has jinxed every TC hopeful since Silver Charm when they first changed it.

Curlin to carry 128lbs in the Foster

How the hell can Asmussen complain about 128? He should have been assigned more. Giving 12 lbs to a slug like Student Council should not a problem for the Horse of the World. I just keep thinking of...

It's both. I know that you said pick a side, but the sport/game needs to push both angles. It is one of racing's greatest attributes.

PS-did they do a piece on you (Bane) for the 1987 Ky. Derby?
