We have listened to the show since the "pre-Byk" days and have rarely missed a day. It has only gotten better with time and with Steve at the helm. Covering all aspects of the racing industry, it is a valuable resource and a "must listen" for everyone involved in the industry.

I've been a loyal listener since Steve filled in on the old show. It's a feature filled show, with many guests, good handicapping advice, and a light banter to keep it interesting.

Steve's show is the main reason I have Sirius.

Steve is one of the greatest handicappers I know.

With Steve's help I have made enough cash to buy a lifetime supply of Crest Whitestrips.

Steve Byk does not get enough credit for what he does for the promotion of the sport of thoroughbred racing. Besides the radio gig, he has arranged for about 100 people to share in affordable horse partnerships,thus opening up that whole side of the game to a number of new fans. Plus, he truly is a great guy and even feeds us all afterwards. He's the real deal!

i would have used the term "sartorial" somewhere in the first sentence as a subtle tribute to his wordsmithing.

otherwise a fine article.

Steve Byk has a fantastic show thruout the year, but it gets to be extra special during the toga meet. He is a throw-back to the fifties thats for sure as to his attire.. Loves hats too! He brings a lost passion back to the game.

I remember Wayne from his blue jeans only days, way back when in NM. He dresses better, I dress worse than I did then.

We're on the disaster list down here now from the rain. The All-American QH trials went forward though and the huge favorite ran to the inside rail and ran last in that heat. I hope the rain there stops, don't want to see you watching the Travers from the canoe!

Keep up the great writing.
