Okay well while were waiting for the next round to begin on the "is this common for jocks agents" thread (oh right, like I'm the only one? )I thought maybe we could play nice in the sandbox and share.

Who has a race they love, that's fun, different, that they wanna share or remember?

Here's one of mine.

Good Lord I thought he was gonna leave altogether and go hit a Starbucks and a bookstore or something.

I wish I could find the replay, but Giant Chieftan's first race.

I'll toss up a .27 second softball.

I saw this horse come back as a 4 year old and was in attendance when he won an allowance race at Arlington Park.

I also have his Kentucky Tavern Kentucky Derby Winner mirror over my left shoulder.


Just under the "Winning Colors" mirror, and just over the "Ferdinand" mirror.

I don't think I can top your choice. My own theory is that the rider thought the outside was the best part of the track. ;>)

I can't seem to locate the video, but there was a race at the Big A last Spring in a dense fog, and Durkin's call was classic... I can't remember all of his comments but for at least the first 1/2 of the race you couldn't see a horse.

I thought it was fitting to post this here...

The unforgettable, amazing and much loved Sir Ray is gone.

Sleep well.
