Did they really have to show all the spills? The show is going to be on animal planet where millions of animal lovers are going to watching horses die on the track....not exactly good for the sport

We are so starved for coverage of our sport in the media, that I'm sure I'll have to give it a chance.

Full page back cover ad in Rolling Stone with the tag line "Win or die trying"...

At least they are trying to market it to a different/new audience
