Triple Crown Not Great For Horse Racing....

Of course they will. There are problems that need to be addressed, changes that need to be made. Maybe some tracks need to close... it might make more sense to kind of streamline racing and offer a better product.

Cheaters still cheat, suspensions are still a joke BUT we finally have all of THIS and you choose to, not find a negative but search one out and rip it out of nowhere? Why? For what?

Sorry... do not know you at all and I mean no disrespect but I don't get it (and I don't agree. Simple mathematics... some (not a lot but some) of the people exposed WILL become fans / bettors. I would imagine anyway).

You can choose to go through life appreciating the good, searching for what is right, being joyous, finding beauty OR you can be the other kind of person. It's really a choice.
