Is anyone awake at the NTRA?

It looks like the Acorn and the Manhattan will not be shown on TV. I guess I can understand the Manahttan not being shown, but how hard would it be to coordinate posttimes with ESPN, NYRA and ABC to allow a TV audience to see the Acorn? Maybe the NTRA could step in and work something out.

Jesus!!!!!

you just get used to it Justin, hard to blame ABC though, its not like the big race even draws them in.

Thanks, and I had that 10-1 shot in the first leg. Too bad Wait a While didn't fire. And I bailed on Teuflesberg one race too soon. Mayb 4 fo 6 will pay something.

No chance.

There's a "contact us" form if you go to abcsports.com. here's the comment I left them.

Hi, I just got done watching the Belmont on ABC. Note that I didn't say "I just got done watching the Acorn, the Manhattan, and the Belmont on ABC." That's because you didn't show the two Grade I races on the undercard before the Belmont. Not on ESPN, not on ABC. I just don't understand why you would switch the coverage over to ABC after showing the rest of the undercard on ESPN and not carry two GRADE I races. You really disappointed some race fans today.

There's a 500 character limit or that rant could have gone on for a long time.

I watched all the pre-Belmont races on TVG and then switched to ABC to watch the Belmont.
