My guess, and it's just that, a guess is that KY derby.com prefered that only "happy happy, joy joy, flowers and puppy dog stoies" be posted on the blog. They prefer to see any "negative" stories (who doesn't look good, what trainer seems concerned etc) be dug up and presented by outside talent. They want their "in house" on site guy to tell the happy side of the runup to the Derby. Even though he's a blogger, he's an employee (salaried or contractually) of the Downs and they may feel that they have an image to present.
