I've been watching thoroughbred racing events on television since nearly the beginning.
I can truthfully say my favorite events were those with Jim McKay present.
He displayed a complete feeling for the moment, as a journalist and as a fan.
His narration on the "Jewels of the Triple Crown" is one of my all time favorites. Pending this afternoon's race, it remains a complete body of work...
