Too many cooks at the Spa ?
While Del Mar has just one John Lies , whom i mute - the Spa now has a basket full of on air talent for the 4 -6;30 live show.As Harvey Pack said on ATR last year , Andy and Gabbby team well and Maggie is a good paddock person. The Mig added ontrack warmup info but H.Pack didnot cotten to him. So now Blewitt is gone too and Greg, Amoss and Loduca are on. greg is improving his knnowledge etc we, are given a baseball guy Loduca to listen to. He is a motor mouth to me whie he is given too much air time , thus a mute, to me . Too many cooks to me - what do y'all think ? like the show,minus Loduca.

Their replays on the site, which are exactly synced up on both the head ons and the pan shots are invaluable. I just wish they had some options for my slower internet.

We visited the cook who makes the red clam chowder. You know soup is good when you can sell it in August.
The NYRA mascot looks like Bullwinkle the Moose .

Look at it this way, its a billion times what TVG is and NBC is frankly unwatchable. So to me it should be on the entire card. Could I make some points that are valid and critical sure. The production is rough, but they dont have the budget like an NBC or TVG to do much more, that said at times it ordinary. Do I love Greg Wolf? Not really but I again its not a HUGE deal, especially given what am I listening for anyway's. Who bets what Greg Wolf likes? Gabby is becoming REALLY good and they will be lucky to keep her away from NBC in 2 years. She is very easy on eye is extremely well versed and NYRA isnt keeping her long as she continues to grow. BTW how good is Amoss and Serling. Amoss is tremendous asset, you want Jerry Bailey or The Schrupter instead? How good was Amoss prepping a FTS'r to run, you literally got a look into racing that is offered to insiders only, that's pretty cool stuff.
Perfect hardily but clearly a HUGE improvement on the drivel bettors and fans are used to getting

I agree with the positive comments. This is a slick, well produced, show. It's startlingly good. I'll be the first to admit I was wrong on Paul Lo Duca. He's gone into Saratoga Live like a fish into water. He's more relaxed and just nice to watch and listen too. Very professional. Love Maggie Wolfendale, especially out on the track. I'm just amazed watching it and remembering what we used to have. This is so great. I can be at home and really enjoy the whole day. I can be part of it.
