It ain't over 'til it's over! Horse comes from way back to win! 

The GOAT! I was in high school when he won the Triple Crown. Watched all 3. I never saw Ron Turcotte use the whip. The perfect partnership of horse and rider.

That for sure but you gotta admit that Rich Strike at the Derby a few years ago was something to see!

Yes!

@@agneslong2323, he used the whip briefly, and lightly, at the beginning of the home stretch in the Derby. He never used it in the next two races.

😂

You said it!

I could not agree with you more!!! Worst Call I have ever heard by far!!! and I go back aways... first horse I ever bet to WIN was John Henry... Hollwood Park.... 70's.....

He used to be a speaker in funeral...seriously

It's legal to whip your horse like that in this country lol crazy absolutely insane

😼.

Desert Boots of Eminent Pace - for each step, speed increases a small amount. Starting acceleration is reduced

Yep, after being whipped... so sad.

@@nancy-katharynmcgraw2669 5 times in the final furlong isn’t excessive and those “whips” are actually very light , foam filled that make more noise than anything. Animal rights and welfare should always be paramount but I honestly see no abuse of the winning horse , the horse looked like it could run another half mile at the finish .

@@pugmahone9439 until they break a leg and get put down

@@paddington1670 I agree there are far too many horses dying while racing and a lot more should be done as the animals welfare should be paramount, thousands of horses , many of them wild are shipped from Canada every year to Japan and Korea for food, they are shipped in extremely tight crates which cause terrible distress many times resulting in death while in transit, the Canadian public needs to put pressure on their government especially in Alberta about the suffering of these horses , it’s a despicable practice.

@@nancy-katharynmcgraw2669 I don’t normally watch horse racing because of that. I simply hate seeing them whipped! The jockeys should not be allowed to carry a whip!

Lmao no but I watched the movie I have never cried so much before it Edit: ohh wait I cry in every animal movie

no drugs here.

More of a Bojack man myself

At first, from the thumbnail, I had to look closely a second time and then watch the whole race to make sure it wasn't Secretariat. Now I go over to watch Secretariat's three performances at his triple crown.

If they had "confidence" in their horse, they wouldn't have to BEAT them with a crop over and over!!!! These races should be run on horses natural ability not cruelty!!

He was lucky that other jockeys left an opening for him. Otherwise he would have no chance.

You think them whips hurt a horse 😂 learn how whips work let alone on a 500kg animal

@@samjohnson5649 Yep, that's why in UK they only allow 7 whip strikes per race. Any more and you are at risk of suspension. Clearly it is competely safe. Modern whips do not inflict physical pain, but they still startle horses with unpleasant loud shots and in general coerce them into running beyond their physical abilities, which is unsafe by itself.

It wasn't a patient ride, the horse was outpaced early and the jockey rode him flat out from start to finish..You are not a very good race reader..

Your comment is SO funny but true. That's about emotionless as anyone could get for a race where the horse comes from last to first. He could have watched the Hindenburg in New Jersey and gone to sleep!

Obviously not an Australian race caller, they are the best in the world. They make you feel like you are riding the horse.

Give him a break, he's on Prozac !

Yeah he was boring

@Arsenal Manic u support Arsenal that’s abuse in itself

Backed it 😉

Alot ofjockies would of gave up Credit to the jockey I wonder what price it was in running

I had a friend in Australia decades ago who put some money into buying a racehorse. It had problems and was gonged out of a few races. Finally the horse was set for an inaugural race at a new race track. The horse had a bad jump from the barrier and was left behind. He ran like Desert Boots.....stayed on the inside rail and came up to pop up close to the end line way in front. Great race.

I saw that also. They looked like they could sit a horse.

Smart jockey, kept his horse on the rail, saved distance, had something left at the end dispite being bumped out of the gate.

Well, maybe not quit 50% farther, but yeah, he jumped on the rail and they gave it to him.

And that's an unfair way to end the race IDK why American tournaments don't speak against it

@@dv9239 I've never really viewed it as being unfair but that's because I never really thought about it since it's the norm over here... I've seen many races where the best horse couldn't get a clear path through because they were either accidentally or intentionally boxed in. It definitely makes it easier for jockeys to cheat and I'm not naming names but there are two who come into mind (brothers) who work together to help each other win. They've been caught cheating together but there's many times where they've gotten away with it. The American racing style helps dirty riders like them continue being dirty... Not only is it unfair but it's also dangerous. The way they bunch up together drastically increases the chances of a horse clipping hills with another and causing a catastrophic pile up. Afleet Alex's Preakness Stakes is a decent example of what I'm talking about. Scrappy T blew the turn and Afleet Alex nearly went down.

True but this race had a lot more horses than most American races.

@@historyandhorseplaying7374 Yes but no. There are 13 horses in this race and the average number of gates in our races is 14. The Kentucky Derby is the only U.S. race that I can recall having more than that but I may stand corrected. That being said, if you watch nothing else except races that are held at California tracks, specifically Santa Anita, it's understandable to make the mistake of assuming that U.S. fields typically consist of 3 to 5 horses. That's because Cali racing is going under for a variety of reasons.

@@drudanng.8567 It's not just Cali. I attend mostly Gulfstream and tracks in West Virginia, and I watch other tracks on the screen, and the vast majority of races are under 10. Luck if we get 7 or 8.

Well, I'm pretty sure that the horse had something to do with it.

Just like the song,You're always be my number 1 one?Hehehe ? Its more fun in the Philippines! Welcome? Ok Loves see you soon, miss you my Loves? Amen tayo dyan?mmm..

He's a Brit - whatda expect?

Cheers I enjoyed reading your analysis and anecdotes - makes me want to research Calidoscopio - I have a soft spot for veterans who maintain good battling or brilliant racing careers. - we saw Winx race so well down here in the Pacific she is a gem.

I love how Secretariat had his own plan, that horse wanted to come from the back to show off what an amazing athlete he was! Just breathtaking to watch!

That was until he hit the Belmont Stakes. That day he decided to show everyone just how great he was. He took the lead right away,toyed with Sham and then pulled away. It was an awesome performance that day.

@@heartfanjim01 exactly. He went right to the lead along the rail before the clubhouse turn. It was in the Derby that he was last on that turn, and then gassed the field on the outside. Set what's still the Derby record running almost the whole race on the outside. He broke Sham. That great horse never raced again after the Belmont. Had he been born late enough to run as a 3 year old the following year, he could have been a Triple Crown winner. Same thing with Alydar.

Jockeys with no clue doing mid 11 second furlongs...

@@Kevjohno what time per furlong do you believe they should be going?

@@jamesvaughan7697 I reckon 12 second furlongs

They were going at 40mph at the start and 35mph at the finish.

Spot on mate, see it time and time again.

Very true. Love seeing this kind of race. So EXCITING!!!!

I think it’s more considered for baseball

@@cornelwilson1369 I suspect it could apply to a great many competitions.

in running must have been any price. make your own price up and you could still have got a bet on.

It went 460/1 in running

Phar was gelded -- too boot! What a gaff!

Agreed. I think they would run better if they werent to be soar and in pain while trying to run. So their rider can win some money

Everyone talks about Secretariat's Belmont, but to me his Preakness was even more incredible. He broke very poorly, was last on the first turn, and then decided he wanted to run up front. He passed an entire field of Grade I stakes-winners like they were standing still and had enough left in the tank to hold on and win. He was, indeed, a tremendous machine.

Yep, well get called conspiricy theorists though but race fixing goes on much more often than die hard fans like to admit. And no jockey is innocent, as it often takes the whole field to be in on the scam to pull it off.

Lots of hugs and kisses for the horse after I bet Love it when you stick it to the book makers

Exactly nothing spectacular about this at Southwell its happens regularly Van Dijk about a month ago and the old boy General Tufto many times after being tailed off in running
