Sweet.

I love the stuff NYRA showed during their replays show yesterday.

Gate Dancer winning at Ak Sar Ben - Secretariat losing to Onion etc.

That was some ride by Turcotte. It's the kind of ride you'd expect to get from a 4% jock at Sunland.

The Legend's Last Ride. An all-time great. All the other jocks desperate to get Shoemaker home on top, except one...Eddie D.

Full on sweep of the field at the 1/16th pole aboard the good Exemplary Leader to return a generous mutual.

I'm pretty sure Delahoussaye and Shoemaker were in cahoots prior to the running. Not for nothing, Eddie D. rode a lot of horses for Shoemaker when he first started his training career. Might have even rode his first winner.

I've never saw the race ... but Barry Meadow hit the Pick 6 that day ... or so I've read.

You have that little yellow book too?

[The Indomitable DrugS]

Yep. I own more than I'd want to admit...but that one wasn't bad.

You should see the two I have from like the 1950's ... they are scary bad.

I love reading about the double triple bet that Beyer used to crush.
They should bring that back.

I just wish I was around in the 1950's.
