Jason Beem's Thursday Column for Oct. 6, 2022

It's the weekend of big stakes at Santa Anita, Belmont at Aqueduct, and Woodbine. It's also the opening weekend at Keeneland. In the spring of 2006 or 2007, when he was announcing at River Downs, he got DQ’d out of a winner early on in the card. He was angry and yelled at the stewards. He lost a couple hundred dollars. The next week he received a check. This week, the podcast has a preview episode of the show. There's enough content to give you previews and the winners of all the races. They're coming up. A lot of racing is going on.
