The Forego may have been the spectacle , I'd vote for a good photo of that for an Eclipse

There already was one when Whereshetoldmetogo did it to Firenze Fire in the 2018 Gallant Bob..

Nikki Sherman's below was the best but wasn't submitted. Found the 2nd one below that I'd never seen before too..

I thought I had seen a photo like that but couldn't recall which horses were involved

The slo-mo on FSN was epic. Grabbed Yaupon’s bridle at one point.

Firenze Fire looked to me like he would have passed Yaupon if not for the distraction. I won’t argue if anyone disagrees.

Looked to me like he had just put his nose in front when he went Tyson/Holyfield on him. I had a large bet on FF...it was a painful, hilarious loss that I won't soon forget. It was hard not to laugh...the crowd where I was sitting was absolutely cracking up....

I bet Yaupon but am positive he was beat before FF pulled that stunt. Terrific job by jocks to maintain balance and keep going. Rest of field not even close enough to take advantage.
