The great Chic Anderson narrates the incredible win by Forego in the 1976 Marlboro Cup coming from far back in the pack. One of the best finishes ever.

I saw this race on tv with my brother and i was yelling that Forego had got there and he was saying he didn't, this is along with the '78 Belmont are two greatest races I've ever seen, Secretariat's Belmont was the greatest performance but those two were the greatest races in my opinion...

I was a kid and saw some the greatest races @ Belmont during the 70's. This one included. From Riva Ridge on, the 70's was the greatest era in horse racing period.......Thanks for the video.

I was there that day. I'll never forget the moment when Forego's number went up. I just couldn't believe he'd actually made it, and on a sloppy track he hated, too. And when he returned to the winner's circle, people were cheering like mad. I feel so blessed to have been there that day.

That's one of the most exciting finishes I've ever seen!

Yes, I totally agree. What a closing kick Forego had in that one!! Amazing.

If you wanna see an exciting finish then find the 1975 Marlboro Cup.
Forego lost by a head to the 3 year old Wajima while giving him 3lbs. Forego was actually third, as both he and Wajima were flying at the end, picking up ground on the front runner with every stride.
It seems like I've seen that race in the last year, but I can't find it anymore.

Thanks for the heads-up, flatonia. I'll keep my eyes open for that '75 Marlboro. Sounds terrific. Take care.
