![]() Six weeks away from the showdown between Rachel Alexandra and Zenyatta, Oaklawn Park officials were working to firm up live television coverage of the $5-million Apple Blossom Invitational Stakes (G1) on April 9.
ESPN analyst Randy Moss is representing Oaklawn in the negotiations. Moss, a longtime Turf writer who developed the Moss Pace Figures, is a native of Hot Springs, Arkansas, and he worked for Oaklawn for two years as operations director. Mark Mandel, a spokesman for the ESPN family of networks, said on February 25 that the company was in talks over television rights for the Apple Blossom. ESPN will carry the live broadcast of the Masters golf tournament the same day from 4 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. EDT. http://www.thoroughbredtimes.com/nat...ce-wanted.aspx |
