My favorite big race call is the 1989 Belmont Stakes with Marshall Cassidy

Geez, that horse had so much run left in her at the 3/16ths pole, it was crazy. She even had to be steered through some traffic, and she just picked her stride back up and blew through them. The run was better than the call.

I almost asked how it is even possible that after 50,000 posts the ability to operate the youtube commands isn't part of the repertoire.

What a great video!! That Donnaguska had some fine moves; she came flying.
Long ten letter names matter. They're motivators.

1) Go to YouTube and find your video
2) Find + Add To / Share / ... More on the youtube page
3) Click on Share
4) You'll see a link like this https://youtu.be/DUgqafddwxs
5) Copy (Right-click and "Copy" or CTRL+C) ONLY the code after the backslash. In this case it's DUgqafddwxs
6) Back on PA, reply to a thread, and click on the YouTube button at the top and far right in the post editor
7) You'll get this pop up -- Enter the option for the [YT] tag: enter a title for your video (it can be whatever you want it to be)
8) Then you'll get this pop up -- Enter the text to be formatted: enter the code from youtube you copied earlier DUgqafddwxs
9) Click "Preview Post" to see if it worked
10) If everything went as planned, click Submit Message button

In my opinion, every bit as good as Durkin's best call....
"They've been wanting a target, they've got one today"
"Songbird facing her moment of truth"
"A soul stirring duel"
"A cliffhanger that could go either way!"
Brilliant! Wrona's best call and right near the top of all time BC calls worthy of an all time great BC race.

The BC distaff was such great race. Getting to see Songbird a couple times this summer in person, then again at the BC was amazing. Race lived up to the hype, wish Stellar Wind would have broke evenly and if she did who knows what could have happened. Hoping for a big year from Songbird. Big fan of her as I was Rachel, one of my favorite horses of all time.

Durkin's call of a huge upset in a turf race at Saratoga, "Slambino, he's 88 to 1!". Watching the race and hearing the call will send shivers down your spine, it's almost as if you were holding win tickets on him - now that's a race call.

Wrona has always been one of my favorites. Glad that he has made it in the bigs. Very accurate, subtle sense of humor, but aware that the race is the real show and he is secondary.
