What may be a rainy renewal of the Grade 1 Pennsylvania Derby is the highlight of this week's Ron Flatter Racing Pod.

Track announcer Jessica Paquette previews the $1 million race and talks about her groundbreaking year at Parx Racing.

Jockey Florent Géroux talks about his ride on Saudi Crown in the Penn Derby as well as his other stakes mounts on the undercard.

Handicapper Ed DeRosa has tips not only for the big races at Parx but also the Oklahoma Derby at Remington Park.

Listener feedback is focused on the calls to replace racing and playing surfaces that are widely regarded as unsafe in their sports.

The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Google and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.
