also, if you're in a meeting and suddenly blurt out "annnnnd theirrr off!!", it might be frowned on depending upon where you work.

More amusing than anything is the piped in sound of hooves hiting the ground during the race.

You are right!! The only place I know that does that is Hawthorne and it is the most ridiculous thing you'll ever hear. When the gate opens the hoofbeats start. when they cross the wire the sound is switched off yet the horses are still running. It is so stupid.

ESPN used piped in crowd noise during the Breeders Cup as swell as Travers, made me want to vomit.

And really, do we need either image in our minds during a horse race?

i don't know how it could be both. but if you can say down the stretch, i guess it could be up the backside...lmao, still sounds bad!!

Down the Stretch has a very nice backside (so I've been told).
Some times it's up, sometimes it's down.
Any more questions?

No, I don't know how to post pics.

just don't see how it could be down the backside and the stretch, where's the up part of the race?

but definitely running up, rather than running down the backside....because 'running down the backside' is the worst of all!!
