Here's one for you:
The year, 1977.
Two year olds face each other.
One is named Affirmed, one is Alydar.
This was a "fair and square" stakes. Not like Alydar's win via DQ in the Travers when they were three year olds.
Alydar won it, and got me "hooked on racing".

Name the race.
Nice story. I love hearing this kind of stuff.....

The Youthful Stakes?
