Glad to see the races on HD this weekend
Kenny Mayne, for my taste, is one of the better talents on ESPN.
The networks really dropped the ball this year. The public was really captivated by the whole Rachel - Mine That Bird scene. They were ready for some extra racing action after the Derby.
I think this year's Belmont viewership will be better than last but will fall short of the Preakness increased ratings.
I hope I'm wrong.
It will be great though to see so many races in HD on ESPN and ABC. I hope we might even get to pick up on some horse body language. But we may see a little too much of the talking heads and not enough of the real stars.
Really looking forward to the race.
