And the next year wasn't bad either. Flying Continental went on to have an extremely good post-Derby career. Hawkster and Clever Trevor both had very nice careers too. Awe Inspiring was another very talented colt in the Derby field that year.
And of course, the race also featured the horses I would rank 1-2 in any list of best horses in the last 25 years.
1987-1989 was an absolutely fabulous 3-year stretch in this sport.
