Not showing the post parade or the call to the post for each race undermined the pageantry of the sport. Also I miss NBC's majestic music. For a superlative day of racing in a sport of kings, it seemed more like gritty college football quality coverage. Then again, college football and NASCAR do better than horse racing for ratings, but I don't like this move to ESPN at all. And Trevor Denman was dreadful.
