I remember that well.
I had a good bet on McCann's Mohave ... I think someone forgot to tell Frank Alverado that the race had been shortened to just two furlongs .. he rode like the distance was still 1 1/4 miles. Very stupid passive ride!
I know Boboman seemed like an impossible longshot ... but do you remember the troubled trip he had leaving that gate in that years race? Hard to overcoming that going just 2fs.
