I like this idea more than the human interest crap, this was an abysmal year for the triple crown and this is coming from a horseracing fan. How are they going to sell the game to fairweather fans when the race I was looking fwd to was the Manhattan on Sat? Something has to be done, whether this is to find this generation's Jim Mackay, Charlsie Canty, and Whittaker. There is no more people recognition that used to make this a special event. They definitely should show more races or atleast sprinkle them in between the human interest stories.
