I can't imagine this being any less boring.
Seriously...I've seen more exciting Bingo games at the local Indian casino.

Ah, Santiva at 12, COUNTING THE CASH!

I'm confused... are owners/trainers picking their own post positions like years past?

I think it's terrible. All the speed will be inside him and he could lose a lot of ground on the first turn and he can't afford to do that.

no ****ing way, now a 3 minute break in between. Fail

I believe they're drawing posts like they would any other race, it's just that this one is painfully televised. There's no selection order or anything like that.

Bin Laden happy to be dead to miss that circus

The weight of every message board has already hit Archarcharch. Drew the rail. At least I can save some money now.

I thought he was the most likely winner. Obviously have to rethink that now. Feel bad for Jinks Fires most...

the upside is the wiseguy money just got cut in half.

Just curious. How do you make a draw like that more exciting? Secondly, I think you got the point across on your first couple of post. Lastly, if it was so dreadful, why did you keep watching?

There's a lot they can do to make it more exciting or interesting. And if they insist on keeping it that dull, then don't bother trying to televise it or promote it. Just do it in 5 minutes and move on with it.

Wow. Ok. But you kept watching. I think it served it's purpose. If someone can tell me how pulling a number out of a plastic bottle and then assigning a horse to it can be more exciting then please do. It's pretty standard stuff.

by using cut aways and other "movie magic"...there's shows about freaking grocery shopping on tv that draw ratings...ANYTHING can get attention if promoted well
