I thought the races were more interesting this year. And 50k, 75k 100k and 150k races for starters? What else could they do? Maybe they didn't get a former G3 winner as in prior years but the fields were very full and Ellis handled nearly twice what they did the previous Saturday. I think most people would say they did a great job.
