Yep, that Belmont win is absolutely unbelievable. "He is moving like a tremendous machine" is such a good call. To win by 31 lengths to take out the triple crown is just ridiculous. His win in the Kentucky Derby was just as amazing as he ran negative splits. I am pretty sure all his records still stand 38 yrs later.

Hey. Good to see someone else who thinks racing in America trumps racing in Australia and the UK. I never get sick of watching this.

That first turn is perhaps the greatest moment in sport. Going from last to first on the first turn!
