Other than the Derby, Preakness, Belmont Stakes & Breeder's Cup...I'm done with watching any thoroughbred racing on any of the networks or cable. I've had enough of our product being interupted by all this junk and forced to see limited action from the time given of the event. THANK GOD we have a television network that JUST shows the races (Capital OTB) It's the BEST product BAR NONE when it comes to covering the horse racing product. This sport will NEVER get the exposure it rightfully deserves with NBC, ABC and especially ESPN. Come this Saturday, I'll be watching JUST the race itself...the lead up to the race will be on Capital OTB. It's not worth fighting anymore.

Ol' Clyde Van D. won before they even had a starting gate though. Keep that in mind.
