I saw where Andy Beyer was retiring from his position with the Washington Post. Now that Joe Hirsch has retired from the DRF wouldn’t Beyer be a natural fit as a turf writer for that publication. The Post had too broad of a readership for someone who has his horse racing specific knowledge base. This venue would allow him to reach more readers who really want to know what he thinks on racing topics.
If that type of opportunity doesn’t exist perhaps Beyer could do a little Q & A routine with DRF readers where we could ask him questions such as:
Andy, if a horse breaks from the one hole in a two turn route and races on the rail the entire trip, deadheats with another runner who broke from the ten hole and raced five-wide the entire trip, assuming both received a 100 Beyer Speed should I believe that neither horse is faster than the other???
Just kidding Andy, you’re a superstar and good luck in whatever you choose to do.
But I would be curious what your answer would bis.
