With all the problems surrounding NYRA, this is what these two geniuses are spending their time focusing on....no wonder things are as they are. It's the fans and the horseman that need a drink to deal with all the nonsense.

I'm pretty sure the drink is a result of a contest put out by NYRA where people submitted ideas for what will become the official Travers drink. This wasnt invented by anyone who works for NYRA, although I am sure knowing how they like to drink, they will become experts at sampling it to perfection.
I think the mint leaves ruin the drink and it would be prefect without them.

Ridiculous, they took the first drink I made while raiding my parent's liquor cabinet and added mint and a garnish to it, how fricken creative.
