This has to be the worst television coverage I've ever seen. According to what I can find online, the Classic is in 20 minutes, and they literally haven't mentioned it yet. Lots of interviews, winners circle coverage and talk about the horse who broke down. Been watching for 1/2 hour and other than the actual race of the distance, there's literally been nothing of interest. No race replay. No highlights of past races of contenders. No analysis of the race. If they were trying to cover the event in way to turn people away from the sport, it would be hard to top this.
Finally got around to mentioning the classic with 17 minutes to post time. But the tone of the coverage sounds like something from a second rate 1970s tv game show.
They just showed the stretch run of the Travers with Thorpedo Anna mislabeled as Sierra Leone.

Down for the day. Seemed to run 1st and 3rd every race. Only hit one exacta when J Ortiz closed big with the 8. Hard to bet from a golf cart! Keyed Forever Young to Sierra Leone and Fierceness in boxes in the Classic. That kind of day.

Comical, a statement like that. Was he the guy that went on to win America's biggest race the next day, the $7 million BC Classic? Then won the $2 million F/M Turf in the next race?
Or were you talking about the jockey who broke the record of most Stakes winners ever at the Spa this summer? After what, only a couple seasons there? That's nuts, to go in there and pull that off, and so quickly.
But yeah, I guess he forgot how to ride at a track he completely owned (before going back east to have to prove his mettle to the ignorant doubters).
No offense, but sometimes great jocks aren't on the best horse (which was Friday, and can be any day, especially so in horse racing). Prat follows it up by putting on a clinic in the biggest race and purse we have in America.
Tell us exactly, what looked so terrible the day before? Not being on a horse that could win? Because don't think for a minute that guy isn't always more prepared and knowledgeable as any of them, and at a track he knows better than any. All of which is why he is undeniably a great. He "looks terrible" makes zero sense. Not one trainer would come close to agreeing with that statement. Let me guess, you bet a horse he was on...and it lost.
