Default Complete TV broadcasts of races: Where can I find them & what do you have?

Hey guys I need some help.

I'm looking to find the entire televised broadcasts of some old horse races. I can always find the gate to wire performances of the old races but I can not find the entire televised broadcasts.

I would love to see the entire televised broadcasts because it really brings you back to that time in which the race took place. About 2 weeks ago I watched the entire televised broadcast of spectacular bids 1979 kentucky derby. It was awesome!!!

I also was wondering if anyone had any old televised broadcast of races. Especially from the 70's. I have some stuff but would love to hear if you guys have anything. Let me know what you've got if you have any complete televised races.

Help and thank you.

I appreciate the tip. But Youtube doesn't really have much in the way of entire televised broadcasts and believe me I've looked.

I've got some stuff and I bet that lots of people on this forum have entire televised broadcasts of old races.

I'd love to know what you guys have if you have any.

What kind of stuff do you guys have? And please help me if you have any suggestions on where to get old broadcasts.

I used to go to the Kentucky Derby each year and I used to record The Oakes coverage and the derby coverage on my VCR. Probably have from 1986-2000 most Derbies and Oakes television coverage. Usually recorded the Breeders Cup during that time. Back in the day ABC wide world of sports would include major horse races during the 80's. They would devote about one half hour to races like the Fla. Derby, Flamingo Stakes, Arlington Million, Travers, etc.

Hey KirisClown

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I can not thank you enough for posting the 1979 Preakness Stakes online for me to see. It made my whole day.

I had never seen the full broadcast before and I could not believe - and still don't believe - that I have it to watch.

If you have any more broadcasts it would mean a great deal to me if you could post them.

It is so hard to find stuff from the 70's where did you get it???

I love this!!! Thank you so much!!! I am blown away to see this!!!!!

You wouldn't by any chance have The Entire Televised Broadcast of Seattle Slews and Affirmed's 1978 Marlboro Cup.

I have looked high and low for it to no avail. I always wanted to see it because I would love to know what the broadcast was like. Being that it was the first time two triple crown horses raced against each other I can only imagine it was an incredible one.

Any chance you have it?

and again THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Thanks anyway. It's pretty cool to go back and watch some of the older derbies you remember from awhile ago.

I have it on a personally recorded VHS. My VHS to DVD burner hit the dust last year though. I haven't viewed it for awhile, but pretty sure it's the complete 90 minutes.


I seem to have the 1994 Derby (Go For Gin) on the same tape. Not sure why though. My guess is that I had gone for Bud and got lazy on my recording technique of the day...

I have just about every Kentucky Derby since Ferdinand.

Sorry Partymanners, but because I watch it all the time on your youtube page I have to ask: do you have the entire televised broadcast of the
1978 Stuyvesant Handicap???

I would love to see Slew's final race in it's entire broadcast

Your a freaking legend brother!!!

Every Kentucky Derby since Ferdinand? That's a great collection you have. I'm hoping to find the broadcast of the '91 Derby on youtube one of these days.
