Default BC Coverage

Love the idea of using more state of the art camera angles, I too especially love when we get to see the horses from the ground angle.

I think the manner in which the Melbourne Cup is covered by Aussie TV was great. A few examples off the top of my head are the in depth pre and post race interviews of jockeys, trainers, and owners; I also loved the way they lined up and introduced the jockeys prior to the post parade and believe it is a fantastic element that can be added to the BC races. These are just a couple simple things that may help to build interest in the game as these players do not change as frequently as the equine athletes.

A final note, please continue to include the P3, P4 & P6 payouts after each race. These are typically not included by networks covering our big race days and I was pleased to see ESPN include them this year and hope they do so again next year.

Thanks for the opportunity to offer input.
