5:12 - Here's Edwards with Francois Parisel. Further proof that Parisel doesn't exist and is just an alter ego of Pat Biancone, no Edwards. Let's check in with Jeanine again. Nope. Still not there! This is a hell of a telecast for ESPN!

5:25 - golfer: "I'm no french expert, but doesn't Francois Parisel translate to 'Frankie the Umbrella'?"
I knew it. Biancone is just using his mafia name to run his BC horses under. Interesting story concerning Discreet Cat and Garret Gomez isn't that interesting. Here it is: Godolphin chose Gomez over Dettori. Enthralling.. DC, off a two-race losing streak, still stands a big shot considering slop breeding and -2 TG in Vosburgh, but odds are pretty underlaid. Wondering if there's enough speed in this race (sarcasm). Gottcha Gold, Wanderin Boy, High Finance all figure to go balls to the wall. Pretty much eliminates those three, although WB is dangerous on the wet. Park Avenue Ball certainly has a shot given those circumstances. Stop everything. Jeanine has a follow-up on that Garret-over-Frankie bombshell!

5:33 - Hank wonders about Discreet Cat and his ability to bounce back from the Vosburgh, adding that he "doesn't trust" Discreet Cat. So who's on top for you, Hank? Ah, Discreet Cat. Shrewd. Influence your ubiquitous legions of hardcore followers to machete down his price, then you can bet your REAL pick! Poor Kenny Mayne is stuck in the middle of the rain in Times Square, holding his own bumberchute, while Hank is covered up, going both ways on an underlaid favorite. It just doesn't seem fair. Minutes until they swim through the inaugural BC Dirt Mile (and 70).

5:39 - Bailey tries to jinx his third straight short-priced horse via interviewing its jockey, bullshitting with Garret Gomez for a few. Prices as they approach the gate:
Discreet Cat - 7/5 Lewis Michael - 9/1 Wanderin Boy - 6/1 High Finance - 16/1 Gottcha Gold - 6/1 Park Avenue Ball - 13/1 Corinthian - 7/2 Xchanger - 8/1

5:44 - Major respect to Denman for pretty much calling Corinthian a winner nearly every step of the way. Blew by Gottcha Gold on the turn and romped in 1:39 flat, with GG well-clear of Discreet Cat, who headed out Wanderin Boy for third.

Good stuff. Looking forward to reading tomorrow. I think Jeanine made a mistake when she said that Corinthian's biggest win was today and not the Met Mile. I think nine of 10 would still pick the Met Mile.

5:49 - Exacta: $60.20, Trifecta: $215.40, Superfecta: $496.40, Pick Three: $1,591.40. Edwards is interviewing Desormeaux. I must really love this sport to watch these two clods yammering back and forth. Thankfully, Jimmy the Jerk steps in to say a few words.
An enjoyable first day of the BC, but certainly not something I'm kicking myself for missing. Tomorrow promises to be even messier, but there'll be plenty of wet, wild racing. Hopefully there will be no champions crowned or dethroned on those surfaces, but it should be entertaining nonetheless. Trying to avoid the rain and dodge tramplings from Asmussen's security will suck, but I'll be with the Bykster, whose smile could ignite a fire in the ocean. Um, yeah. Thanks for reading and we'll do this again real soon.. Tomorrow!
