ESPN coverage was terrible on the classic. Don't even know where uncle mo was placed. No interviews with any of the other trainers/owners...

They were running over time. They were holding up the football game.

Ponders the question: Why did Mott ever take Mike Smith off of Drosselmeyer after the Belmont?

It was good, just ditch that quick shot from ground level. This wasn't a steeplechase. Hi Def rocks, horse racing really needs to step it up.

Smith doesn't ride at Gulfstream or in New York for that matter, not in the kind of races he was running in, and losing.

If that was the case we're lucky we even got to see the race. Racing normally plays 2nd fiddle to even beach volleyball anymore.

According to my tv guide via fios, they were supposed to go to football at 1/4 after. They were about 5 min late
