They did a 30 minute segment with Shirreffs last night where the "poor west coasters have to battle the bias" notionw as propagated endlessly. Today Schrupp referred to Del Mar as the epicenter of thoroughbred racing today because of the appearance of Zenyatta. The guy re-invented hyperbole when it comes to her.

Everything about Del Mar is first class, except the racing.

Its ok, thats what message boards are all about, cant be happy about anything, even a great race horse gets trashed here like a junkyard dog.
