I assume you were involved with team Bobby Frankel---and are talking about his amazing accomplishment of starting four beaten favorites in the Breeders Cup that year.

Mandella had a little better day I guess.

Were you there? I don't think so. I was. I was impressed that day. That is my opinion so you come on now.

I thought it was an awesome race just on video! They have it on Juddmonte's website.

Why would I be talking about Bobby Frankel?

I think that it would probably be Gorella's victory in the Beverly D. at Arlington this August. I love the move she made, and it was electrifying in person.

A close second, would be the other race visually scorched into my memory with the same move....Vacare's maiden race at Arlington this summer. Breathtaking move.

Surely Brian you have seen more than a few breathtaking races at Portland Meadows in your day.

Hey, Slewicide Cruise turned in a pretty wicked performance on opening day of 2005.

That's the most memorable of all the races I ever saw there. Nothing breathtaking, but you already knew that.
