New Netflix series surrounding the Triple Crown in the US.

Anyone else watching?

This series is produced by the same lot as Drive to Survive.
 
Haven’t yet but will do at some point. Not finished the current Drive to Survive. Enjoyed that and the Tour de France unchained but couldn’t get into the tennis or rugby similar progs. The golf one just amazed me at how much prize money there is in the sport

I’ve not watched the rugby or tennis one but told OH to watch the golf one without me after the first 2 episodes. I’m afraid I don’t find a ball rolling slowly towards a hole as enthralling as the audience at the events do. 😂
I’m going to give this new one a try.
 
I will say, there’s not much (if any) emphasis in this series on the horses and their training. However, it’s still an entertaining watch.
 
Horses and trash TV, I’m 10 minutes in and loving it. It’s very different to racing here! The outfits 😳

Lovely to see Frankie on our screen again!
 
I binged watched it and loved it . Their horses I must say look a lot stronger built than ours . Much bigger generally also. A great watch
 
White bridles have been a thing in North America for a couple of decades now. If you think that's something odd, don't look at the Standardbreds that race in everything from black to hot pink. We tend to stick to purple or yellow in our stable.
