Daily News Does It Again

[Cannon Shell]

The horse is a NY horse owned by Big NY owners trained by a Big time NY trainer who ran her best races in NY and is based in NY. How can they not give it a lot of press. Not to mention the fact that the trainer who won the damn race was the trainer of the most famous broke down horse in recent memory? I hate the picture but it is a big story and they are in business to sell papers.
One of the pitfalls of the exposure that the industry craves is negative images that sometimes occur. We have to understand that the bigger the industry gets in the publics eyes, especially with the backing of ESPN, the more the focus will fall on the negative. It is not a horseracing problem, it is a society problem.
