2005 Jockey Club Gold Cup

I won't ruin the ending for those who've never seen the race. It's quite the finish.

I'm a big fan of this race, this call, and this post. Cheers to you, sir!

I hear ya, I'm a big fan of this video, too. It's hard to believe it all started for me way back in October of 2006 with Borrego "catapulting past the field"...the superb call and sheer brilliance of Borrego's power help remind me why I started doing this in the first place.

For sharing your tremendous project celebrating Secretariat, the finest thoroughbred I've ever seen, cheers to you, kind sir!

I tip my hat to you again, Tom Durkin has the passion and I adore hearing his calls. Thanks

[cf1970]

Thank you for your kind support. This was the first video I posted on youtube, and what a video it is!

One of my all time favourite calls.

Have a great day.

[Jazzgirl8888]

Omg! Borrego was a force to be reckoned with that day of that there is absolutely no doubt!

I love listening to the guy who called this race!

A fantastic video!

I wonder how this race would have shaped up with Ghostzapper in there. To bad his career ended after the Met mile.

[joefederico]

That was a sick move. "Inhaling horses". Awesome performance and with such ease. Perhaps not the greatest field but that swift move was almost Secretariat like. Poor Lava Man. That horse accomplished a lot in his career seeing as it looked like he was destined to be owned by the glue factory early on.

[umarmaxmas]

you are the man.

i dont know how many times i will say "what a call" after hearing mr durkins calls, he got me hooked to racing.

Borrego, Yes Representing California in New York. Great Call By Tom.

Major props to Borrego, though I've also always liked Flower Alley. Great horses in the field all together.

Welcome back, Jazzy! This race is a real treat. Great commenting and action. After I posted this as my first race on youtube, I was hooked!

Thanks and have a nice day!
