Does a story running an hour leading up the race on NBC really make any impact on the handle?
Anyone at the track or an OTB probably isn't watching and/or has already made up their minds on who to bet.
Anyone at home watching that would be swayed by that kind of story, probably doesn't have an AWD account or has already given their money/bet to someone at the track. I think it's irrelevant.
