You know what really annoys me about the NBC coverage more than anything? They have absolutely DONE AWAY with the money shot of the horses entering the first turn in the Derby. Don't you guys like seeing the first turn shot with the spires in the background??? What are they thinking doing away with that shot?!?

Because its a terrible shot and you completely lose track of the field. You find your horse (or horses) entering the first turn, then comes the camera cut and you have no idea of who is where. Then they hit the backstretch, and its another camera cut. Less is better when it comes to camera angles.
