Title: Yawn!

Maybe it is just me, but the Network TV coverage doesn\'t seem to have much horse racing.

Melania going gate to wire against three or four rivals was at least close for second.

Gamine looked like she should have been entered in the Belmont Stakes against Secretariat.

Now an hour+ before the feature race?

That was crazy. She just missed the track record for a mile, and she was geared down the last eighth. I guess she didn\'t need any lidocaine. Either the track is suped up or she ran one of the fastest numbers ever for a 3 year old filly or both.

Maybe a bit of both? Both the main and the turf course seem to be playing pretty quickly. 1:46 and change for Tiz the Law? That is pretty quick.

Jack and Noah ran 6 on the lawn yesterday in 1.07.05

Both tracks seem pretty fast

Rachel Alexandra did after the Oaks but then again she wasn\'t trained by Mr. (edit).
