Overhead NBC view of Preakness?

[Bobby Fischer]

Does anyone know of a link to the Overhead view of the Preakness Stakes?

Thank You

1:44 to 1:54 is quite a sight.

WOW...I didn't realize how much trouble Ichabad Crane got in until I saw that view. I would have to say it definitely cost him 2nd.

Really?

Did you happen to notice the horse that was widest entering and BID with Big Brown and actually gained a length on him when BB widened with that much discussed burst between the 3rd and 4th splits?

That horse was clearly 2nd best.

who was that?

Kent actually did a great job describing his ride..he usualy uses words in the wrong cortex...

Thanks for the link..to bad we couldn't see all the races from that view...sure could help the stewards.

Kentucky Bear looked to have a ton of trouble coming around the turn into the stretch.

If I had this view to work with
and
some other angles similar to those that the NBC crew shot

my ROI would be through the roof.


Instead, I'm left to typically work with NO HEADONS (CD, FG, CRC, etc.)
partial HEADONS (Cali tracks)

or headons I need a high powered microscope to view (NYRA BEL turf sprints, for example).

Combined with less than accurate charts, this makes for a real pleasant experience.

Then again, why would the industry want to make things easy for it's patrons?

The exception, of course, being KEE, with Trakus and the best replays in the business.
