At least the nation will get to see the West Virginia Derby. Should be a really great field this year.

I hear Visionaire is being pointed there. Probably be a small field because of his presence.....might even be a walkover.


Will probably be 2nd choice in The BC Classic after his win in The West Va Derby.

They're going to show some race days on ESPN and some on ABC. Know the Arlington Million day races are on ABC.

They are showing the West Virginia Derby as part of a telecast that will be based in Saratoga for the Test Stakes.

I think the World Bocce Ball Championships are that day as well. I hope they don't go into overtime.
