Will watch when home tonight but the early morning Siros handicapping shows you two put on were comedy gold. Living in the South I had never heard of Harvey till then.

Fun interview! The way Harvey told the story of "Doc" responding to "Is there a doctor in the house?" and making the fast epilepsy diagnosis while still copying down exacta prices from the toteboard was hilarious.

finally had a chance to watch it - it was just wonderful.


I remember Beyer giving out a lock on Harvey's Show - it was a shipper from Penn National. Of course the horse lost and I remember seeing people yelling at Beyer saying XXXXXX Who? (can't recall the horse - but I have to admit -I bet it!)

Loved this video years back, loved it yesterday (twice), and loved it today. Amazing that I have watched it three times in the last 24 hours and I keep laughing at the same places.

"They pay you to go to Saratoga?"

"That's what we have up here, little guys with clipboards."

When I hear about the office life at NYRA back in the day, I cannot imagine the comradery that must have existed. You were lucky, Andy, to be able to call him a friend. We all were lucky just to hear the stories.
