Default 37% Decline in TV Ratings For Belmont

After better Derby numbers I'm surprised to see that kind of drop.

Keep waiting. But don't blame NYRA for that. They did the same bullshit for the race before the Derby and Preakness.

This is BS, I am old enough to remember ABC showing races prior to the main event. Seriously to show Dale Romans and G Fox's relationship when there was nowhere else to view the Manhattan was pure unimaginable stupidity.

I just watched the video on BloodHorse. It was an exciting race. Winchester and Gio Ponti were together nearly the entire race, around 8-9 position, and then . . . well, I'll let you watch.
