Could be worse. We could see the start of a race a la ESPN with the Eight Belles where I presume a drunk in the infield is entrusted with a handheld camera for an 'amongst the people' vibe. Also we haven't seen taped pieces where the jockey of Smarty Jones was some guy named "Elliott Stewart."

NBC needs more cameras the last turn in the woodford was completely obscured. An absolute joke

I'm still recovering from "Top Chef Kentucky Derby." Could you imagine "Top Chef Superbowl?"

Come on folks, it wasn't that bad. You didn't win and you have a bitch about the coverage. Pretty much what it boils down to.
