Sure, he didn't call Achill Island's name down the stretch. And sure he called him Achill Hill the first time. How many times did Jerry Bailey mangle the name in his analysis of the stretch run after the race? Three or four times before he finally gave up.

How bout a little credit for picking up on Corinthian's winning run seemingly on the backstretch?
