There's nothing more thrilling than working another 6-horse field but the real thrill is in the fourth when just five betting interests are set to run.
I am so disgusted with New York racing lately that I don't even know how to deal with being a fan anymore.
It Sunday and it's fast and firm. On another forum people were bitching and moaning about this program before the 22 early sctaches landed. I know the MTOs went but so did an AE with an inside scratch. The feature is cut to 5 runners and the other stakes have seven and five.
And today's two "marathons" go a piddly mile and a sixteenth. We can't even get a two-turn lawn race anymore.

Even when I began to follow NY racing closely in 1998/1999 the Belmont Spring/Fall meets were premier. No doubt, the Breeders Cup killed the Belmont Fall Meet. No one races their good horses...all wait for BC.
Look at ALL the NY trainers that Churchill Downs and Keeneland drain from Belmont's Spring meet...it has been like this since 2004/2005 or whenever Spitzer started messing with NYRA in that witch-hunt.
