Horrific camera work by NBC on the Preakness. For the entire final furlong, the camera focused on Funny Cide, instead of giving the pan view which would've included the trio of Peace Rules, Midway Road and Scrimshaw fighting for 2nd and 3rd. Then the instant Funny Cide hit the wire, they cut to a frontal head on shot of Funny Cide, despite the fact Peace Rules, Midway Rd and Scrimshaw still were battling for both 2nd and 3rd. Hopefully, somebody at NBC Sports will get their a$$ reamed for this tomorrow.

I couldn't agree with you more. Had Midway Road finished 3rd or fourth, me and a partner would of pegged the trifecta 2x's over and the superfecta, and exacta. Unfrickenbelievable
