And if you were a tv exec and read a week before the race the trainer of Curlin threatening not to run because of the weights would you spend the time and money to cover such a race? It wasnt a compelling race in reality. Watching Curlin run a bunch of overmatched horses into the ground is not really a good story unless it is happening in a big race. It would have been nice to have it on TV but I cant see where it ESPN would have felt it was compelling enough that needed to be shown.
