An injury list<BR/><BR/>obviously, i dont expect a list of who is not 100% and for what reason. But as you said, what if there was a list published, which was manditory(and regulated) from an unbiased party that actually got the reasons for "bad luck, shoes falling off, equip failure, weather dislikes" to name a few. <BR/><BR/>When football looked to increase popularity they turned to gambling.<BR/><BR/>why not have the gambling in horse racing or they might as well turn into dubai, and have no wagering<BR/><BR/>just my two centsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8560898823512627114.post-91084853469464939382008-02-13T20:57:00.000-05:002008-02-13T20:57:00.000-05:00Those Fraser interviews aren't bad, but I would pr...Those Fraser interviews aren't bad, but I would prefer interviews that actually take place within 15 minutes of the race.<BR/>Sure at 8am Jimster Marino might think his horse has a great shot tonight, but who knows what goes on during the day, and how the track is, if you can grab him within a better time frame he might be able to give you more, how the horse warmed up/took to the track, etc. <BR/>I know the Score doesn't do this much anymore, but there was a time where we whined and whined(its our nature) to get interviews of drivers that maybe should have won the race and didn't. Whether it be big favourites or horses that shoulda won. It actually might lessen the blows from the people who call "stiff" and the like if they heard the driver after the race explain that the horse threw a shoe for instance.<BR/><BR/>best regards,<BR/><BR/>LouAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
