I just want them to get rid of the blimp camera during the live race. I don't understand how even the casual fan could enjoy such a view. People like to see where their horses are.

There is NOTHING good about a blimp view in the live race. 45% of last year's Breeders' Cup Mile was shown, LIVE, with a blimp. They might as well have been rats running, it was a disgrace and an insult to anyone watching, let alone betting.

But Pat its edgy and hip! And people who tune in for the purple carpet show like edgy and hip!
Actually showing it live like they did is really an epic fail on the directors part yet I'm sure they won a boatload of media eclipse awards for the coverage.

The good old days when Royal was the only Anthem and a guy named Billy Bush wasn't kicking off the Prime time show with the purple carpet walk!
