I do find it amusing that you choose to go after Harvey Pack, a guy who some of us grew up watching on TV and is responsible for many getting involved in this game. I think if you took a poll and asked what people would rather watch, the Siro's Seminar's or the horrendous Capital OTB shows the results would be a landslide.

That show A.M. Saratoga(NY OTB Show) which is now on HRTV is beyond embarassing. Technically it is a disaster. Their mikes are never on right and every show someone has to come out and help get it right. Sean Clancy speaks and it is beyond loud....then the guest speaks and you cant hear a thing. Joanne Jones ....well...is Joanne Jones.....I'll leave it at that. Rick Lang is ok.
Now...as far as those ...umm...handicappers...please.....Anthony Mormino comes on their looking like John Gotti. The horses he picks must think they are gonna get whacked if they dont win. His opinions are horrendous. Then their is some guy on the phone who gives out horses who seems like a dart thrower.
The only part of the show which is worth watching is with Clancy and Migliore talking with a jock/former jock. But usually their are microphone problems. The whole show looks like it's produced by a bunch of amateurs. For anyone who didnt see their interview with Jerry Bailey, try and see it. Clancy had an unbelievable embarassing on air moment.
Harvey Pack is a legend and anyone who has followed NYRA over the years has to like the guy. His shows back in the 80's when I started following the game were the best. One of the reasons I began following the game.
