LWM, it's a 5 second shot. It's a classic angle... classic photograph material. Whoever broadcasts the Derby should be shooting this angle. Get ahold of yourselves for one race, the Derby is as much about the pageantry as it is who wins to most people. You can very easily see the positions in the field as they go to the backstretch and the announcer calls them out in order.


Bring back the money shot!!! It represents all that is good about the Derby and the Triple Crown.
