It obvious what they were trying to do with that cover....

Everyone knows that the two most tragic events in the history of the Belmont Spring meet are Ruffian's breakdown, and that bum Jazil winning the Belmont.

I believe ESPN added bonus coverage of the '06 Belmont Stakes after the end of the movie. I guess their reasoning was that if seeing Ruffian break down doesn't leave you feeling fully depressed....watching Jazil sure will.
