Boy...

There are several things that are interesting here for different reasons, one of which is the spring/fall business-- I would like to know more about that.

That aside, you have to love \"Ever since Eight Belles we\'ve worked to keep this track as safe as possible and we take it seriously\". And before that you did what, exactly?

\"Goosed it\" for blazing fast times.....

Boy this is interesting, because yet again on a big day the surface was, well, different.  Last year\'s BC, this past year\'s Derby, and now this year\'s BC.  Granted, the rain on the Thurs is a rather large mitigating factor this time.  

What I really enjoy is all the racing types (Byk, everyone who came on his show that week, most other announcers, etc..) who the entire week just kept reassuring us that, \"don\'t worry, the rain on thurs won\'t be a problem, this track dries out faster than any other.\"  

They were all completely wrong.
