After I watch races (and hear calls) like these - true spectacles, IMO - I can't help but wonder how the thoroughbred racing industry has managed to end up outdistanced by, say, poker, as both a...

Is this a matter of simple economics?

The "premature" retirement of marquee horses who are sound would seem to be a direct result of the growth in stakes purses significantly lagging (say, over the past 10-15 years) the growth in stud...

They were very live.

2 winners, including the G3 sprint in the 8th at 11-1 (go, Edgar!)**

Also the first level allowance in the 10th at 5-1.

Both winners were coming off PID wins.

I watched the stretch drive live from the rail on the apron and, to use the Kentucky vernacular, that horse wasn't just whipped, he was "whupped".

Major racing fan education effort

I was not aware of the extent of this new racing fan education effort by the NTRA, which seems quite impresive.
