Not sure where this came from, but a preliminary race order that contemplates no live TV overage for the Juvenile - an original BC championship race which would showcase early candidates for the 2012 Triple Crown - is simply ludicrous. It should be run where the meaningless Dirt Mile or Marathon are.

Of course, maybe Calvin Borel has promised to do something completely stupid after the Marathon two years in a row, in which case, that race would be a ratings bonanza.

can we assume that the Juvie will be broadcast live on TVG or HRTV?

I dont know how all that works when the major networks are covering the days races.
