I agree, Durkin's call is hilarious
It really was incredible. I actually enjoy watching it because it's like someone dropped him out of the sky. From what I can make of the charts he ran his opening quarter in 27 and 2 and his final 3 1/2 furlongs in 39 and 1. The final time isn't all that impressive (Maimonides was about 10 lengths faster than he was, and his race went a full second faster than this one) but I'm sure his final quarter was blistering but because of the odd distance we'll never know unless there was someone there who clocked it.
