Whenever Tom Durkin said “victory Gallup is gathering momentum” you knew he would be there in the end, wouldn’t always win but he would be there. A very good under appreciated horse.

Watching this after 25-1 long shot Mongolian Groom won the 2019 Awesome Again Stakes at Santa Anita Racetrack. I gotta say that I doubt there’ll ever be as deep of a field than the ‘98 Breeders’ Cup Classic.

@chriscurtis83413 жыл бұрын
Dettori is no one’s dummy. He knew if he looked Silver Charm in the eye, Swain would never get by him so he took him out there purposely. Stevens had to bring Charm out to see Swain because Stevens wasn’t an idiot either.

Absolutely right I don't think dettori should be allowed to race in America after this It cost me and I've never forgiven him Animal abuse. If he doesn't hit him relentlessly he wins

Y'all wrong, Silver Charm wins this race if Stevens just kept him straight, the track had taken Alot of rain, and the good part of the track was the 3 path! Instead he guides him to the Outside, to look Swain " in the eye" not only got out of the good part of the track, lost his momentum, going sideways, but most importantly, opened up the hole for the winner, where he would have to gone sideway, to the outside, in the bad part of the track! Charm, still got 2nd beaten 3/4 of a length. Silver Charm was the best horse in a stellar field..!!!

The Best Breeders Cup Classic Field in history was the 1996 Classic Field when Alphabet Soup held off Cigar and Louis Quatorez! My fave Breeders Cup Classic Winner was/is Alphabet Soup! For Two Reasons his Name was/is adorable and his coat was just the prettiest coat I ever seen! No offense but his coat was/is more beautiful than Skip Away's and Black Tie Affair's coats! But every Grey and White Horse is pretty! They are my fave horses cause their coats are my fave color and plus they make me happy when I see one!

How many horses did Silver Charm have to beat down the stretch? He saw Coronado’s Quest, put him away, so Stevens takes him to the middle of the track to see Swain and beats him and caught by a flying Awesome Again. Silver Charm wanted to compete but just wouldn’t run away and hide.

he was tired and not used to being murdered by the whip , which is largely frowned upon in Europe .. frankie blamed the lights, but it was his fault sadly... prob his only real big mistake in a group one race --- he is def the goto man for a grp one in Europe - still doing it at 50
