knew it would happen eventually...but still a bit sad-especially since he's 'only' 21.

A solid horse on and off the track. A credit to the breed.

That race never stops being exciting. It's also a great reminder of why Durkin is the best ever.

It doesn't matter how many times I see it, I still get goosebumps.

Well said.. we've really been privileged in NY to have Durkin around for so long.. He will be sorely missed when he retires..

His Woodward win is my favorite.

I bet Concern in the BCC future (60-1) based on that race, so i recall it fondly.

I was at GP for HB's last race--everybody was shocked when he was pulled up, fearing the worst. Thankfully he has had a long, pampered life. That race was won by a horse just starting to make a name for himself, Cigar.

I loved it when Durkin says "and Mike Smith lets the Bull roll."
