Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 1, 2018 Journalists Share Posted June 1, 2018 Tom Law of ST Publishing and Bob Ehalt of Thoroughbred Racing Commentary earned top honors at NYRA’s Joe Hirsch Memorial Writing Contest, which recognizes the best print and internet coverage of the 2017 GI Belmont S. Law won for his follow-up piece entitled “Perfect Script,” which examined Tapwrit (Tapit)’s journey from a promising $1.2 million yearling purchase to a Grade I winner. Ehalt won for his examination of the international circumstances surrounding the 149th Belmont S., brought by Japanese stakes winner Epicharis, who, despite scratching, made the Belmont the first U.S. Triple Crown race available for simulcasting wagering in Japan. The awards will be presented at Citi Field Tuesday prior to the Belmont post position draw. View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
