I'm sure every racing fan of our age can say where he/she was on that day. I listened to that Belmont on the radio while driving back from LA to San Diego. I got so excited by the call that I had to pull over to the side of I-5 or risk losing control of my car.

Could not WAIT for the Travers. Watched that one on a TV at Harrah's in Reno. I could have personally maimed Pincay for robbing fans of an honest showdown.
