ABC Can’t Pick a Winner

Jim McKay of ABC should be ashamed of himself. It is an embarrassment to see a class guy stumble about like a broadcasting school novice. His handling of the Woodward Handicap (Sept. 15, ABC) was an insult to the viewers as well as to the owner of the winning horse, In Excess. Didn’t anyone except the betting public at the track (Belmont Park), who sent him off at even money, prepare for In Excess’ win? In my opinion, the network, the track and the promoters fell on their swords by touting Farma Way. Holy hype, I give you the second-place winner.
