What the Nation is saying about the 1979 Jockey Club Gold Cup...

In their only race together, champions Affirmed and Spectacular Bid met in the Jockey Club Gold Cup.Read More
Will horse racing ever see such dramatic racing again? Affirmed controls the race, puts away all challengers and challenges from start to finish. Coastal runs a huge race, right there with the big guns at mid-stretch while on the wrong lead. Spectacular Bid meanwhile was in-tight early, rating off a slow pace, made numerous bids but still fought-on despite being defeated at the head of the stretch. Very cool!
