Believe non-TJC approved silks/blinkers are OK in stakes. Must conform in NY otherwise.
Forget whose silks this came up with that helped alter the standards... might have been Brother Derek with the NBC peacock on the jacket.

That prick Mike Wilbon just called the Belmont a fraud because of the nasal strip decision. Effin guy always craps on racing. Kornhiser adamantly disagreed with him the entire time.

Now that the stewards have allowed the nasal strips I have to say I'm happy with the publicity that's been created. At the golf course today several guys who for all I know have never followed racing asked about it.
So I think, so far, it's all good!

Yeah I've seen some of this too.
It's pretty well know I'm into horse racing and 3 different people who never talked to me about it before stopped to discuss. Of course one is a freaky "pretty horsey" cat lady type but she means well and is at least rooting for him to win it strip or not. I suspect it won't be the last conversation I have before the race. All in all it seems like good PR to me.
