Default Deep Impact's Finale

It's this Christmas Eve.. he races in the 12f Arima Kinen where he lost for the first time last year, beaten by Hearts Cry.. I hope he retires with glorious victory and I think he becomes the all time leading career earner from T M Opera O if he wins it. Good luck to him.. Its been a great 18 months following him (too short!!) but thanks to the marvels of YouTube, Ive been able to follow his career so much closer than I previously could have..

YES.
TVG has been advertising it for the past week.
not sure what the start time will be, but should be about 1am ET.

Deep Impact against the top 2 finishers of the Melbourne Cup.
should be a lot of fun to watch.

Would love to see this guy go out with a win. He is one of the better turf horses we have seen in a while. He is a champion through and through. Just give us one more buddy.

GO DEEP IMPACT! RUN YOUR HEART OUT BABY! THE WORLD IS WATCHING!

Can you tell that I love this horse? LOL.

One of the most electrifying performers i have ever seen. He moves over the ground in a way that is simply sublime. A great horse, I will miss his presence on the racetrack.
