Look at the green information column on the left side of the page. Scroll down to Broadcast, then click on Video . From there you will be able to get the race replays in a similar fashion to the way we did before . I had a little problem with it at first as well---but it is there .

I'm having the same problem and absolutely hate the new site.
I can't find the stakes schedule either and a few other things. I don't know why they felt the need to screw up what was a perfectly good and easy to use website.

I don't think so Prudery. Its just not very good.
One thing that was great on the old one was that they showed you the stakes schedule for the entire year and if you clicked on it you would get the list of nominees for the upcoming edition and/or the winners of the past runnings of the race with their winning times.
I can't even find a stakes schedule let alone the other info.
The old site was simple and good. It looks to me like a poorly thought out decison to change to "something better" which is in fact not better.
Why do people constantly try to fix things that aren't broken?

I hate it because everything I click on that website blocks me at work.

God forbid I want to look at horse racing stuff.

Have to agree that the old site was convenient to use . I havent tried to find the stakes schedule so I believe you . Why do people try to fix things that aren't broken ??? You KNOW---because they can, and because some folk can't leave well enough alone .

Ahh Thanks. That wasn't too tough, I just needed to be a little more patient.

I know it. That was one of my favorite part of the site. I find it hard to believe that they would do away with it.
but one thing I did find amusing is the career opprotunities segment. LOL

Guys , I don't know if this is exactly what you are looking for, but under " Horsemen " in that infamous green column with the iddybiddy print, there is a stakes schedule . Only for a few days at a time, but you can also get the nominees under ---duh---nominations . Maybe this isn't as good as before, but I was sure there was stuff there . You only need a compass, a sandwhich and a pickax to find it .

Only NYRA could make a website worse than the one they already had.

Yeah, Cajun--sometimes guys just have no patience ... I borrowed the shtick from my famous when guys get lost in the bedroom diaries . I will, with all due respect, leave the rest to the imagination .

Well, I've been fortunate in that I haven't needed a compass in the bedroom, but I sure as hell have needed a magnifying glass.

I have a feeling we are starting something ---unless you are nearsighted .

Actually, I am, but my contacts help for that. A person with 20/20 vision would have needed a magnifying glass in this particular case.
