![]() The simulcast host concept is a wild frontier in many respects. There are a lot of things racetracks could be doing beyond two peeps sitting and talking about the race. Unfortunately, budgets and contracts with the video company are often limiting factors.
I agree with anyone who says the hosts have to provide insight... give me a potential pace scenario over reading the PPs all day long. |

She never went out to observe workouts personally to be able to say with authority how a horse was coming into a race. It was all cosmetic. She was a pleasant, pretty face. A powder puff that added a softness to telecasts. Don't misunderstand me. I like Jan Rushton as much as anyone. She became an institution in New York. But she only was being tolerated in terms of her contributions to the raceday information. Look, you think that Jan Rushton 'should' be on a racing telecast, and you're entitled to that opinion. But no one that seeks valuable information from raceday productions which will help them make money would get that from her. Horseplayers say they want real customer service and tools delivered to them by the tracks that will enhance their wagering experience and MAKE THEM MONEY. Hard, cold facts regarding race shapes/pace, track trends, bad trips/good rides, declining/improving form, odds anomalies, trainer pattern/intent, et al, delivered authoritatively by people whose opinion has gravitas and WHO REALLY BET, is what paddock show telecasts demand now.

Fact: Jan Rushton worked for NYRA. Opinion: "But she was a mannequin on broadcasts and even failed to truly deliver off her experience as a gallop rider." Here's a link so you can understand the difference between facts and opinions: www.dictionary.com. If you don't like Rushton's work, fine. But don't try to pass off your personal opinions as facts. |
