Default 1979 Flo Rida Derby

I would love to see a replay of 1979 Florida Derby, always heard of all the trouble The Bid had, and he still won by 4, I think he was shut off at least three times, the jockeys in that race were all out to beat The Bid and Ronnie Franklin, I can't find this race anywhere. thanks

Thank you very much, been dying to see that race, but never found it, you made my day, and it was some race, just bad riding by an inexperienced jockey, The Bid was something special
