That Perez is Kyoko, a former Paulson runner... Perez used to purchase a lot of horses from Paulson.. the following year they came back with Yappy in the same race.

Birdonthewire was the favorite.

The winner is.......Itaka?

Yup, thats Itaka with Pat Valenzuela.. taken on Super Saturday 1994..

Virginia Rapids was the favorite.. Birdonthewire had fallen on some hard times in 94 and hadn't regained the same form from the previous year..

A really nice son of Foolish Pleasure.

Do you have any others from that day? It's probably the best day Ive ever spent at a racetrack.

That would be really great.. thanks a lot.

Unfortunately I don't have anything from the 76 Triple Crown right now.. it's difficult to come across stuff that far back. Sometimes old broadcasts will pop up on ESPN Classic.

If I ever come into possession of it I will post it..
