The races aren't important. Mindless interviews with owners and trainers where nothing is said at all is a lot more important.

I can't wait to hear the justifications for this one.

at least we haven't been subjected to another rapping jockey skit.

yet.

the "you can't possibly say anything bad about this" kid with cancer filler was an improvement even though it made me wish actual cancer on anyone involved in producing that easy piece of maudlin emotional manipulation.

cute kids and cancer. it's ratings gold.

Only Churchill allows NBC to show undercard races. You can blame this on the folks at Pimlico. Now NBC isn't going to be happy with the 2.0 Belmont rating that they'll get now with no TC possible.
