I appreciate all these interesting uploads mate 👍 Coming from the Southern Hemisphere, many are new to me.

The arc win was more remarkable the hard season he had don’t believe he gets enough credit how great he was they never shut up about frankel this horse did over 1mile 1mile2 and 1mile4 simply the best

When Rip van Winkle only struggles into 4th in your Guineas and your trainer knows for a FACT 1m was strictly speaking short of his best distance … then you know you’ve got something special on your hands . I was convinced he’d be shown up in the Arc , boy was I wrong , superb horse and a superb sire too . I don’t rank him as high as you’d expect with his record , but like Llamtarra and other 3yo retirees , in my view you’re going into battle with one hand tied behind your back . The mighty Ribot ( born in Britain 👀 ) , Mill Reef , Enable , the incomparable Frankel .. all came back as 4yo to defeat the next seasons classic generation , and in my view that’s the ultimate determining factor in the who’s who in the Pantheon of the greats . 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Best all time for me

It’s TRIP-TIK .. not TRIP-TEACH.. annoying old fogey 🤦‍♂️ Sorry.. but O’Sullivan just gets RIGHT up my kilt 😆 Cracking performance by Reference Point but even better by Cauthen .. he really DID have a ⏰ in his head . Master of pace that guy 👌 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Another fantastic video, I am really enjoying your channel, brings back a lot of memories!!

Hugh McIlvanney on Lester Piggott - "A volcano trapped inside an iceberg"

There’s an excellent series of ‘Racing Greats’ interviews by Rishi Persad and Steve Mellish on the Racing TV channel and I’d recommend the Mick Kinane video. His otherwise stony face lights up when talking about Sea The Stars and to emphasise how much the horse means to him, Kinane let on that he’d actually visited him at stud the day before as I recall. Not many jockeys would do that, some fifteen years after their last race. Alas, the subsequently short legged foal never made it to the racecourse… But I digress.

The perfect horse.

What a horse

Yep, Longboat trained by the great Major Dick Hern who trained some terrific horses like Brigadier Gerard, Highclere, Bustino, Relkino, Dunfirmline, Troy, Petoski, Sun Princess and - with Neil Graham - Nashwan

The security for an expensive jewel like Shergar at his stable was inexcusable

Brilliant stuff,what a horse.

Class horse we missed out on breeding

Greatest of them all by a country mile

Just wonderfull ..I didn’t think you could keep putting out content this good ,I was wrong what a fantastic channel

Betfair forum would be melting down at Peter mixing up Belmez and In The Wings for 2f

I should also add that I just lurve the extended pre/post coverage too - ta 👌 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Seen it many times but never fails to raise the blood pressure ! I swithered for an age on which Cecil inmate to back but eventually ignored my nagging worry about the ground for Old Vic and figured that as both Cecil and Cauthen thought he’d get away with it then surely I must take the hint , but it was close as Belmez was an improver … sadly , betting wise we three were wrong , but from a spectacle point of view it was right up there in stature and drama . I DO think the ground made a few lengths difference to Old Vic , just enough for Belmez to get past him but once he did Old Vic fought like a lion to get back up and lost NOTHING in defeat to his younger stable mate . Cracking post btw , cheers 🍻 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

A true legend, there will never be another istabraq, such a beautiful superstar... he will be sadly missed by everyone and everyone knew istabraq ❤

i backed tony bin to win the arc..........did it in a win win and double with an unplaced horse of john williams i think in the c\witch

The 1988 Arc winner is 100/1

assastis was great value i remember seeing 100/1

was there for this race to see henry win trainers title and see old vic one of my favs and i loved belmez too. i did back OV didnt have a saver on bel which was stupid as was always going to be a 2 horse race before it started

in my views best KG line up ive seen best horse jockey and trainer to win it too😊. shame he had an abcess on his foot for the arc so couldnt show anything

The Tv racing was so much better then

Light Cavalry needed a pacemaker to sit in behind of. Like Dick Hurn did with Bustino. Makes me wonder sometimes, why so called professional connections, do such seemingly baffling things?

Was always an Old Vic fan but he needed that cut in the ground always wished he would have met Nashwan. These extra length meetings and races are great to watch. Thanks

Hi, i do like your old school racing legends videos including extended coverage keep them up 👍

Not a bad field...

I doubt today's winner will end up in any compilations. Terrible bunch. No wonder it's such a big field.

Pat eddery was the king

Not only is it Earth Shattering that 1 horse won The Stewards Cup , The Portland AND the Ayr Gold cup at all , but to do it in the same season is just stupefying 😮 And then to go on and improve further to win Grp 1 races .. wow , just WOW !! Loved every second of this trip down memory lane , thank you so much sir , I’m very grateful 🙏 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Schoolboy error letting Shergar get through on the rail, should have blocked that avenue off

In my lifetime there’s been 3 sporting icons, Muhammad Ali, Pele and Lester Piggott.

great stuff keep them coming legend

Ttt

ITV today just have a bunch of yes-men and yes-women who never disagree with each other because it might affect their mental wellbeing, who continue to say how wonderful they all are, theyve probably all been jabbed as well like sheep

ITV should look at this and learn how to cover racing.

I'm guessing this race was the Dante (Derby trial at York). I remember Leonardo da Vinci so well, and remember watching this race live on tv and being grnuinely shocked at Leonardo's demise. Looked to be a wonder horse early in his career, but perhaps he didnt beat a great deal in thise early races

Pat rode more championship s and group winners

Brilliant channel mate thanks for uploading all these great memories i still follow racing but its not a patch on the good old days.

Wonderful horse. As long as she didn't pull his chances away on the way to the stalls, was like lightning once they opened. Like a comment below, an all time favourite. Great race clips. Thanks for compiling this.

Lake Coniston too, I lived near Epsom and knew a few lads from the Geoff Lewis yard - he was a machine on his day.

Lochsong was an all time favourite of mine, a marvelous mare who, if human, would be very much her own woman... Watching some of these races takes me back to (mostly!) happier days.

That was like 💩Off a shovel 😅.. you are RAPID when set yer mind tae it . Going to airport to pick my daughter up , this is my wee treat when I get back . Awesome 👌 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

At 3:41, surely that's not future football manager and Peterborough United FC owner Barry Fry on the right in the sheepskin coat is it ?

Awesome vid sir .. I applaud you 👏 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Almost the same comment for Wolfhound 😅 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Rich reward for Sheikh Albadou after being 2nd the year before 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
