BrianZipse · I still remember the buzz surrounding Easy Goer's tour-de-force in the Gotham. 1:32 and change ... Not sure they make 'em like that anymore! · 89 days ago ·

Mike in SB · This looks like a pretty good Gotham, although I don't see any Easy Goers in the race. By the way do you actually drink that water at Saratoga? · 89 days ago ·

AndyScoggin · Mike in SB--On our annual Saratoga trip, a buddy of mine insisted that everytime we entered the track that we had to go to Big Red for good luck. It is tough to drink, but a splash on the face and hands is always good luck. Can't wait to visit the Spa this summer. · 89 days ago ·

driveon · Andy; if you drink that crap, you'll only do it once! LOL. I think I have some 25 year old plastic "Big Red Spring" cups somewhere that they used to hand out there. · 89 days ago ·

Remembering ... Jaipur

Jaipur’s place in history is secured alongside Ridan. The two brave colts are connected in immortality as closely as they were on the racetrack on August 18, 1962. To say the name of Jaipur without next saying “and Ridan,“ is unheard of. They were two wonderful colts who happened to run the race of ...Read More

Curlin1234 · I watched this race for the very first time in November after hearing about it ever since I started reading up on horse racing as a kid. I was astounded! Horses that evenly matched and determined is a one-in-a-million shot, such a fantastic race! · 480 days ago ·

struff2011 · Even though I was not born then, watching these old Travers' races give me a chill. To have races such as these by great horses is some of what horse racing is missing now.

I watched him get off the van and just felt like I was in the presence of greatness just by watching this amazing individual. · 478 days ago ·
