![]() What a race! I was willing Denman to keep going, but as the announcer said, it was the young legs of 6yo Long Run that overcame the two 11yos, who kept on fighting like champions. Ovations for all.
Anyone who wants to see a replay, go to the Sporting Life site at www.sportinglife.com and click Racing in the left-hand column, then Video at the far right across the top. I registered there many moons ago and haven't had to log in for years, don't know if registration is still required. |
