I was too. I am always nervous during the Derby because of the large field.

Fox sucks---goodbye Belmont- at least I got to see the Peter Pan

They treat horse racing pretty crappy

They do- I’m pissed!

But my Horse Races Now app is showing Belmont so I can watch there.

I was not familiar with Mr. Rudulph, though I have seen him on Fan Duel- When I read his comments I was aghast-- ignorant and so insensitive -- he has been around for a long long time and you have to wonder what would motivate a person so closely involved in this sport to make those comments. Me thinks his days at FanDuel are done.

I thought it was important to post this letter acknowledging Randy Moss and Jerry Bailey for their coverage of the tragic incident involving Havanameldown- IMO they handled it sensitively and forthright--They didn't attempt to gloss over it like so often occurs at Fan Duel---and sometimes at Fox as well.

I agree with this they all handled it with the utmost compassion and dignity. Randy and Jerry were both very visibly upset after the incident, yet they maintained composure and gave us information in a timely fashion. Before the Preakness Kenny Rice came on and explained how he talked to Bob for 10 or 15 minutes but Bob didn’t want to be on the air. They didn’t sweep it under the rug
