It was filmed at Santa Anita during their Oak Tree meet (sept-oct) and during Breeders Cup. They are highlighting a few jockeys that signed up to do it. I think that they are including some of the others though and their wives and family ::Praying I don't look like crap if they play my interview::. I did hear that they wanted to have/create some drama because what reality show doesn't have drama. From the preview that I saw it looks like this is done with a rivalry between Aaron Gryder and Joe Talamo and the whole Chantal Sutherland and Mike Smith dating.

Well hey, if it has horses in it, I'll watch! :teehee: Goodness knows we get so few shows that have to do with horses.

It looked pretty interesting. And I have to agree with Stephjm, Animal Planet shows the Sport Horse Cup, and they had Horse Power (the Maclay tv show) but their really aren't a lot of horse shows out there.

I am going to watch it. Don't know much about racing, but it's horsey & I get sucked into reality shows.

The only thing I noticed is the 1 commercial I saw for it had like 3-4 clips of horses going down during races. I hope it's going to be more than just that angle (horses are dangerous, etc..).

I only caught one episode so far....but liked what I saw. There were a couple of shots of horses going down, all were fine, but to me they did not soley focus on it nor did they try to hide it. They showed what actually happens on the track. I hate watching shows that are slanted in one direction.

well that's good to know, RNB, because the previews had shot after shot of horses going down. Don't think I could take that, but now that you've seen it and commented, I feel I could handle it. ;)

Plaza suite you have to tall us more! Where in the episode are you and your hubby???

Well i am not in any of them yet. I did an interview but don't know if/when they are going to air it. Hubby is in the opening of episode 1. He says "Its a part of horse racing, people get hurt." and then the next scene Tyler's wife says to him "You have a plate in your face?" and he says "Yeah, right here". He is also in the race with Zenyatta and Hysterical Lady that is in the 2nd episode. His horse is sitting second with the white with blue and yellow silks, he wound up finishing 3rd.

He did tell me yesterday that he was talking to Chantal and they are doing a second season. He was originally going to do the show and then decided not to since they follow you around and to your house and stuff. Chantal did say that the crew is really good and if you don't want to be followed that day just tell them and they won't. SO.....they said that they want him to do season 2 and he wants to do it as well!
