folks going to the derby this wknd for the most part won't become fans. they'e going to a happening, not a horse race.

if anyone wants to make new fans, take your friends or aquaintances to the track. teach them. or your kids, like i have.

and the new folks who dont know that QR has a quarter crack.. well they dont care anyway. They know Baffert. They know cute names. They know colorful silks.. thats all they care about and unfortunatly they get beginners luck and still win by betting silks.

I'm sure if he had run, then the press and the talking heads would have been making the issue of his problems with two feet known to all...even to the most novice of attendees
