Call me sentimental or whatever you want, but being in this business for my entire adult life, I felt it was one of those moments that just reached out and moved, touched and insprired you. I think it was one of the great moments in horse racing history. Nick Zito's close up when he was winning the Derby was another one. I also remember the close up on my late friend Giles Brophy getting very emotional when he was winning the Derby. But this one here was different. It was special. I wish we could see that part of the broadcase and I've looked for it as well.
If anyone ever finds it -- yes, please let us all know.
Thanks.

It always puts a lump in my throat when i see that. It hard for me to think of something more touching than that whole scene.
What a confident ride on Unbridled btw?
