Any idea what the Beyer came back? I think it should be slower than every sprint on the card save the 3rd, and possibly the 6th. Shouldn't be much better than a 75.

Blewitt said "did we see the 2009 Kentucky Derby winner today?" on the replay show... sorry Jason, but no.

Blewitt shows his lack of experience often. He's a decent talking head but horse race savvy wise you'd think they could have hired capable veterans of this game.

I'd like to see him and his sidekick replaced by more deserving, well rounded commentators.

I like his energy and enthusiasm for the game, and he's certainly knowledgeable. That comment does show some inexperience but I don't think they should be replaced.
