Quite possibly the greatest call in the history of harness racing...

I never get sick of watching this! Chills every time!

@ekollros -- yes and everybody knows who Secretariat was but you could say Falcon Seelster's name all day long on a street corner and eventually a special car would come to take you away to a mental hospital before anyone knew what you were talking about. Sad.

@jthelgirlf Ditto...just an amazing call.

I remember when Falcon Seelster came to Toronto...the headline in the Toronto Star next day was "Falcon Seelster Blitzes Mohawk".

He shattered the all-age track record by several seconds (in cold weather no less!)...

amazing horse...

I REMEMBER THIS WAS ON NBC IN !(*%----STILL GET CHILLS---that was sick----and Roger made it SO SO memorable---although Roger h could make a bunch of 2 claimers sound exiting, ...like "LOOK AT THE TIMER!!!....205:2!!! " ha..laughing---  he was great though...Great that you put these up for the freakies like me who love this, lived it---and wouldnt trade it for nada---personal reasons mostly---but still loved these special races---My own races always love more,.

I watched this race from the Meadowlands that day, I remember Falcon Seelster not being eligible for the Jug.This was the last race of the jug day on the card. Nihilator had been in the Jug earlier and everyone was raving about him. He went his mile if I recall 52 and change. I really think Falcon Seelster would have beaten him that day. This was a kick ass mile. true Nihilator did beat him, but sadly they never put Nihilator against the top older horses f the year,would have been interesting.
