Default And They're Off: 2010 Belmont
Lenny, Steve, and special guest Steve Byk talk Belmont Stakes, including their picks. Plus, thoughts on Quality Road, the Hall of Fame nominees, and the site of the 2011 Breeders' Cup.

I can't get a link to work, but if you go to the video page at Bloodhorse you can watch the above.

Quiz: One of Steve's favorite words sounds like one of Michael Jackson's brothers. For 100 points: Name the word, spell it correctly, and define it.

(OK, it's to satisfy my own curiosity. I tried looking it up, but I must not be spelling it correctly because I can't find it.)

He didn't define it. Can I get 50 points?

OMG! I watched this segment. Way too funny. Steve you’re hilarious.
If this radio thing ever gets old for you please move along to TV. You don’t even have to say anything, your expressions and mannerisms say it all. Great job and thanks for the chuckles.

Loved the exasperation about how it all ends up devolving into Rachel v Zenyatta. Started talking Quality Road, then the next thing you know...

Steve, did you happen to get Larry David's autograph after the interview?

That was great!

I don't know what I did for fun before I "discovered" BloodHorse features and At The Races.

Of course you get 50 points. I blew the call when I awarded him the full 100. It would appear that I'm the Jim Joyce of game show hosts.
