affirmed and aldyar in the belmont. hell of a race. and i was an alydar fan--poor alydar!!

i think the thing that really catches my eye tho in the SS/EG preakness is that they were in step with each other. you don't get it any closer than those two did without a dead heat. a bit longer nose for one...a bit of bad luck for the other.

That was a great one as well.. Can you imagine if that were allowed today? Who were those two jocks?

Ah, the 'Fighting Finish' of the 1933 Kentucky Derby. Broker's Tip and Head Play going eye-to-eye while Don Meade and Herb Fisher go mano-a-mano.

The mutuals are a bit of an eye-opener:
Broker's Tip paid $19.86, $6.28 and $4.54. Looks like they hadn't discovered 'breakage' yet.

And that Derby victory for Broker's Tip was his only career win.
