ESPN used piped in crowd noise during the Breeders Cup as swell as Travers, made me want to vomit.

And really, do we need either image in our minds during a horse race?

i don't know how it could be both. but if you can say down the stretch, i guess it could be up the backside...lmao, still sounds bad!!

just don't see how it could be down the backside and the stretch, where's the up part of the race?

but definitely running up, rather than running down the backside....because 'running down the backside' is the worst of all!!

Down the Stretch has a very nice backside (so I've been told).
Some times it's up, sometimes it's down.
Any more questions?

No, I don't know how to post pics.
