The horse on the cover of the New York Times was running in a 2yo MCL quarter horse race in New Mexico with a $6,500 purse...I think Grade A greyhounds in West Va run for purses like that...and dog races at Derby Lane get higher betting handle.
I've heard Joe Drape try to analyze a race. He couldn't handicap his way out of a paper bag. He's unquestionably a very professional writer -- but he has as much business covering horse racing as I do covering the NFL or any other sport in which I have opinions on..but don't really have much of a clue about.
