Chief Stipe Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 The difference in presentation, commentary and video quality between Trackside and ESPN is substantial. Pissing down but what a huge crowd! 157,813 in attendance! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxie Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Wow... a mile and a 1/4 (roughly 2000m) in 2:04 on a slushy track!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hesi Posted May 5, 2018 Author Share Posted May 5, 2018 Watched it on Trackside and then switched to ESPN, and the picture definition was light years better. What was that all about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hesi Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 Has to win the Preakness and Belmont to be called great Some of the horses in opposition may have been inconvenienced by the slushy track at Churchill Downs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxie Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 (edited) I disagree. Any horse that can run the opening half mile of a mile and a quarter race in 45 seconds and then run away from the field on a sloppy track is something very special. So he that win proves he has speed and stamina. He monstered some of the same field in the Santa Anita Derby on a drier track. Won his first race over 1400m in 1:21!

Backondryland Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Aiden O'Brien has 4 runners in the Qipco 1000 Guineas at Newmarket, 2.35am Monday our time, so may atone there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
