S1E21: A Rebel preview - and what happened in the San Felipe?

Saturday's Rebel Stakes and last weekend's controversial San Felipe Stakes are the main topics of the latest Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Hall of Fame jockey Gary Stevens discusses his ride in the Rebel, his reaction to the disqualification of McKinzie and promotion of Bolt d'Oro at Santa Anita and what he thinks will happen with racing if and when sports gambling is legalized nationwide. Former National Horseplayers Championship winner Michael Beychok also previews the Rebel as well as the Jeff Ruby (Spiral), reacts to the San Felipe and discusses thoroughbred aftercare as well as the famous person who got him hooked on racing. The flashback looks at an undefeated mare from the 19th century, we also look at Saturday's Grade 1 Santa Margarita, and we have some thoughts about a proposal to split the Breeders' Cup into a November-December event.
