It was a very fun exciting race to call, i hope Passport goes on to do great things. Also, if you guys get to check out the race AFTER the cradle, it was a 2 lap race on the turf course, and one rider forgot and thought it was only 1, it was pretty comical.
Those 2 lap races are pretty funny, the jock's aren't the only ones that forget it's 2 laps, alot of the fans start screaming after 1 lap...One year I was in the tent and this guy had a few too many free drinks and he thought he hit the lottery....
