    Correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't this the first horse race to be shown on ESPN this year? I can't think of any others that have been on.

    ESPN2 carried the Lane's End last week.

    What is the actual post time for the FL Derby? Going to be in Iowa, need to know when to flip through to ESPN to watch my race.
