So well said, and it sounds a lot like what Privman said on ATR yesterday.

And thanks to Hovdey for giving voice to what I thought while listening to Beyer yesterday about Shared Belief's position in the turn, and doing a much better job than I ever could have.

WOW! With such a long inquiry, how does the director in the truck not show this to the viewing audience at least once? That has to be an NBC camera, right?
Definitely caused some disruption but it was not a "slam" as the head on implied. Thanks for the new look.

And if Colmus doesn't pronounce Bayern guilty on the break, the uproar is muted. when did he become a steward?

This view is no better than the head on views tracks supply when they are running on the turf courses when the rails are out. Easy to tell this view is on a slight angle and not directly above the horses. But yea, what took so long..

NBC camera angles are great for stewards inquiry reviews and not for normal TV viewing.
