I wasnt badmouthing Delaware racetrack (sorry if you got that idea), I was speaking to the race itself. Maybe the analysts on ESPN determined that the race itself was a very lopsided matchup and not all that significant. No I have never been there but I hear its real nice, especially the paddock.
There have been plenty of races at Saratoga and Belmont over the years which I would say the same about. I am not pigeon holing Delaware. Not sure how these lopsided races provide any entertainment value. Isnt that the problem with harness racing in general?
Think about ESPN. They have the choice of showing this race or showing Natalie Gulbis. You tell me who the masses are going to watch.
