Concern was a close second

Oh boy. You should try to find some old film. He was unreal. I believe he was like 28-30 lengths behind the leader in the 58 SA Derby and he ended up winning by 3. I heard a story once that Silky trailed the leaders by something like 40 lengths in a 6.5 furlong race and won by a neck. Not sure if this is true, but it sounds good to me
