Gov. patterson requested a jayZ rap song and the nyra obliged so raise the roof and eat some chicken and watermelon.
Are you frickin' kidding me? This is so anemic. Is it Karaoke Night at Belmont Park ? It's not like they got Jay Z and Alicia Keys to do it, although that would still suck. If I were Belmont I'd have told him to go jump, or played it earlier in the day and done New York, New York before the race like usual.

I think it's hilarious ABC cut it off and went to a commercial break. Here's the real deal, for those disappointed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqlJl1LfDP4

C'mon folks, no need to tear into each other. You're missing out on Kent Desormeaux jokes following the question by Ms Edwards: "Why was Mike Smith an important piece of the puzzle?" I kid, Kent.

Just noticed where Spangled Star finished. Poor Garrett. :o

Pretty good numbers for the dirt races IMO. Seemed like the track slowed down a bit later in the day.

It totally did Phil. The heat and steady wind baked the main and it got very deep and 'cakey'..

They mentioned on the ABC broadcast they were using 25% more water on the track than normal- and while the last two races were far from exceptional they weren't THAT bad... And obviously Bribon running a 107 is far from a reach. Looked like a great day out there, I was sad to miss it.

Many thought the 3-year-old champion would surface on Saturday... perhaps it did in the 4th race. Trappe Shot was very impressive as one of just a few 3-year-olds to post a 100+ Beyer this year.

I hope he stays healthy, but I'm worried they might have wasted a good performance of his on that allowance when he could've gone in the Woody.

Havent heard anything on the status of Take Control, but I feel he has a chance to top this class if he ever gets back.
