Can't say I enjoyed it.
Beautifully filmed, but a fairly disgusting view of our industry.
Racing is way better than that. |

is it really? i thought that it was pretty spot on actually.
racing at an everyday grind, especially from an everyday race tracker standpoint, is not all peaches and cream _________________ "When the solution is simple, God is answering.”

They are filming more episodes at SA, as their ratings are very positive. _________________ Those without sin cast the first stone.

The grooms that are working for Luck, are making big $$, This is a windfall for them, as their wages are 30 years behind times. _________________ Those without sin cast the first stone.

There's a lot of that going around, and not just on the backstretch. _________________ May 2013: Plan ahead now for the Phalaris/Teddy Centennial!

Yeah I agree. I like Gary Stevens character. So far he's the only character that I am feeling anything for.. And the Hispanic trainer has Julio Canani down.
The guy I can't seem to grasp is Dustin Hoffman. Seems like he's always in a hotel room with the Dennis Farina. _________________ "Politicians should be limited to two terms, one in office and another in jail." Anonymous |
