Far TOO many commercials for me. Though love seeing Gomez as a jag. He must have changed or refused to be on the show as he was a decent guy in Chicago. Couple inaccuracies noted: Oak Tree meet more important than Del Mar and Saratoga and gate handlers 2nd most dangerous job on the track? Did anyone let them know there are excercise riders who are not jockeys are out every morning trying everything from schooling babies at the gate to seeing how a horse will react to a whip for the first time? And I wouldn't want Kayla walking my dog.
