If only they would show more racing on national TV, they would indeed gain a wider audience as people could follow particular horses. That means more people going to the track to see their stars in person. The racing industry has always seemed to shoot itself in the foot, never noticing how being the national sport slipped away via neglect over the years. Horse racing never pursued TV aggressively, and now it's virtually gone from even newspapers ....
Huge congrats to Street Sense, thank you to Calvin and Carl!

Super high. It was busier today than I could ever remember for a non-Travers day (and those that were there all weekend said it was even busier on Super Saturday.)
Was awesome to see SS do his thing again. Man I love that horse!
