Re: [Derby] Derby Digest, Vol 14, Issue 46
From DRF: “On the conference call, Carstanjen said that Churchill officials gave the operators of Belmont and Preakness a “heads-up” about the rescheduled date just prior to the official announcement. He said he hoped that the tracks would commit to the traditional spacing and work out a deal with NBC, the exclusive broadcast partner of the Triple Crown.” [Sound of phone ringing] Hi, you've reached the offices of the New York Racing Association Ticket Office. No one is here to take your call, but please leave a message at the tone and we'll return your call within 24 hours. Have a nice day, and stay safe. [Beep] Hi NYRA, Bill Carstanjen here. Hey, I'm about to step to the lectern here at the Twin Spires public relations amphitheater, and thought I'd give you a heads up. With this damned coronavirus the media has cooked up to drive the President from office since it couldn't impeach him, we're going to move the big race to September 5. Hope that doesn't inconvenience you. Stay safe!
