This terrific race, with a good Battaglia call to boot (!), brings up a fun thread idea:
WHAT RACE THAT YOU PERSONALLY RECALL WELL, NEVER SEEMS TO GETS MENTIONED AS A GREAT ONE?

Definitely a great call on the '98 KC.

The '98 BC is probably my all time favorite race, amazing finish with a tremendous field including two of my top 5 all time favorites (AA and SC). Don't know if anyone would consider that "underrated" however.

How about the 2003 King's Bishop, where Ghostzapper really indicated his amazing talent by running a huge race against the massive bias that day only to be beaten by two crack sprinters? Can't find it on youtube though.

Special thanks to Kiri's Clown who puts all these videos up.
