This may have been mentioned elsewhere...

YouBet has free replays for all the preps of the top 25 on the list.

But unfortunately, I won't be able to actually wager on the Derby with them after I view the replays.

I noticed that this week, YouBet has removed every specific reference to "the Derby" and "Churchill Downs" from their site and e-mail updates, replacing "Derby" with "start of the Triple Crown trail", etc.

As if the Derby didn't exist.

Of course, for YouBet, it doesn't.

I hadn't noticed that, and it's pretty amusing. You have to click the "Triple Crown Watch List" to see the replays. And it says it'll be up from now until the "Belmont Stakes". That race still exists.

got to bump this up because I'm too lazy to keep looking for it each day in the back pages.
