Would anyone object to omitting races 13 and 14?

Best suggestion I've heard in a long while. Hard to believe that fans who have been watching races since 10:30 AM will have any energy (or money) left after the Derby is declared official. Post time for race 14 isn't until 8:10 PM.

I'll add my one cent. I agree with Jane and Joly about not including races 13 and 14. Once the Derby is in the books I'll be "crying in my beer" and won't be interested in the remaining two races.
