  • Frank O'Brien is an awesome caller

    shut up

  • It's funny how differences in winning margins mean different things.  When Sunline won the Cox by 7 lengths, it showed what a champ she was. Yet when Bonecrusher won this by a teeny tiny nose, it also showed what a champ he was, far more than say his stomping of the opposition in the Caulfield Stakes.

  • Frank O'Bryan was a fantastic racecaller and called the races at Flemington for years....and he called BONECRUSHER first.

  • There is another call of this race, not sure if it was Bill Collins or not, but it is the best call of this race, bryan martin is a great caller also.

  • 1983 or 1987?

  • And even the Cox.

  • I agree with nswmoose, this is one of the worst calls of a great win I've ever heard! I know I'm biased because I loved Bonecrusher as a kid Iike he was my own, but this was his gutsiest win IMHO, even better than the AJC Derby.

  • meaning would they let Martin be such a big-time caller for years if he were so ordinary as you put it. Answer again is a resounding NO.

  • Tigerrish, Bryan Martin was a gifted and highly descriptive commentator and your comment is ignorant in the extreme. Use your brain for a minute and consider would they let Martin be such a prominent caller for such a long time? Of course not.

  • ahh, its cool thought you might have been. Martin was an average caller. And Miles did a great call of Lonhro's Aust Cup and Octagonal's as well. And no arguement here about the late Bill Collins, he was first class, alot of my vids on here have some great calls by him too.
