Here's the DRF comment today on the final horse in the final race at Bay Meadows:

You Lift Me Up

Two words are synonymous with Bay Meadows moreso than all others and it's only right that the last horse in a BM post parade will have been saddled by Jerry Hollendorfer; his right hand guy Baze opted to ride in the Longacres Mile today but he's here in spirit; outside runner hasn't missed on the board all year and seems a steady sort; post, style and turf familiarity in her favor, but we don't know that she'll have enough punch at crunch time; so long to a beloved race course filled with great memories, this corner's most cherished of which came in 1990 with announcer Danny Alameda's call " Hansen got a big run from Variety Road, gonna get up!"

-George Cottrell
