From Crist's Blog:

2:20 pm: Week Two began with the first steeplechase of the meet, the Ninepins Novice S. delayed from last Thursday, and the National Steeplechase Association tried a novel if ethically questionable way of increasing journalistic support for its races: On Wednesday morning, its representatives handed out $50 betting vouchers, good only for this race, to members of the press, along with a letter that began "Your first bet's on us." I applaud the public position taken by Andy Serling of our Siro's seminars and NYRA's "Talkin' Horses" tv program, who announced over the air he would donate any proceeds from his voucher to the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation.
