I think the answer is yes, but will this be shown at the OTB? I never watch the races there because it is so seedy. I've been able to pick up all of Big Brown's races this year on ESPN.

it's the monmouth stakes, non graded as it's a made up race for him to run in. iavarone said when he wanted bb to run, and that he wanted it on turf, so monmouth wrote a stakes for him.

So much for the web feed: lost the video portion going into the 1st turn.

Luckily, Durkin wasn't calling the race.

That was nicely done. Clicked off his fractions like clockwork and said "come and get me", and they couldn't. He looked good today. The soft turf has to give them a world of confidence about the Pro-Ride track.
