Default Fire the camera crew

The ESPN camera was only on Pyro for the whole stretch drive!! I know War Pass was a runaway winner but....I would have liked to enjoy his victory!!!!

yeah... it's not like the winners were 20/1 bombs... they were top horses with early speed running styles...

This is the second year in a row somebody's botched the Juvenile. Last time you didn't get Street Sense called on the lead until he was a few lengths in front. At least Trevor couldn't really avoid calling the front runner so there wasn't a repeat but leave it to the camera guys to think we particularly care how far back the mud encrusted also rans were before the winner crossed the line. As if you could tell which horse was which....

What about Trevor calling it a 2 horse race at the top of the stretch? Warr Pass was almost out of the screen by then.

between the cameras, the announcing and the mud, it's tough to tell what's going on. Could use the Woodbine chicklets today. Or, better yet, Georgeff.

Ah missed that one. I was too busy grumbling about the 'that's not War Pass you idiots, he's off the bloody screen!'

Did Hank come up with some drinking buddies? Is that what this mess is caused by?

One positive is Hank gives his picks with like 7 minutes to post meaning that if he likes your horse you pass the race and if he doesn't send it in!

I will say this, this Tessitoire has at least a little bit of a clue, no idea who he is though

Did anybody besides me enjoy the pogo stick interview with Caiton and Joe Talamo? There's a time for closeups, that wasn't one of them. I felt like I needed to bounce up and down while they were talking. For a second all you saw was people hopping up and down, no horse.
