3. Disagreement between Randy Moss and Jerry Bailey on the pace of the race and CC's position down the back stretch (Randy thought that the race was over after the half). If you go back and listen, really interesting handicapping stuff.

You might have missed it....
Personally, I found it to be bad reporting to spend more air time with Coburn post-race than the actual winners and celebrating the victory. When they finally interviewed the winning owner, they were digging for a response from Tonalist owner, who thankfully said "No comment." It was a terrible way to end a terrific day and NBC acted as mainstream media so often does.
