That was one hell of a great ride. Alvarado slingshotted the last turn as perfectly as it can be done, then proceeded to humiliate the rest by hand riding the Runhappy colt. Very enjoyable race to see, congrats to all and best wishes for the future.
I know Runhappy is known for what he did at shorter distances, but this last to first move makes me wonder how his son might do with increased distance.
3,4,8 and 11 were the four runners that had more than 1 route win from their siblings. They ran 1st and 3rd off the hot pace. I know it was a 7 furlong race. But that proven stamina shined today.
Yep, wrong lead, which only makes the win that much more impressive bc he was on the wrong lead the entire stretch, had he swapped, he might've won by a larger margin
@@montanamountaingarden476 Exactly my thought. I know the horses up front were getting tired, and I know the speed figure wasn’t amazing, but I think this colt’s performance was pretty darn impressive, especially being so young and green. And he’s so maneuverable, weaving in and out of traffic as Junior asked of him. I hope he continues on an upward trajectory.
Castillo of the number 2 didn’t need to press the pace you look at the form of the horse he’s won from off the best pace. Didn’t understand why he sent him to the lead. IDK. But great job to Contessa team great way to upset the field
Yeah, but he's also only a 2yr old and has had limited starts, was also on his wrong lead the entire stretch, very impressive performance despite all of that
@@kenrick7289You mean Larry collmus? He is not overrated. He has some of the best racing calls in history. Rich Strike, American Pharoah, Justify. I love his calls and his voice. The way he announces a win is just 🤌🤌

From the clouds! At the back of the pack! Covered head to toe, carrying an extra 20 pounds of mud! I love horse racing! 🥰
Congrats Gary Contessa ! And the jockey said the horse behaves like 5 year old, handicappers should give it a look.
Thanks for the 50 cent super and $1 trifecta Junior Avarado 😅
Whoa dude! What a racd, what a horse! I watched his win at Del. Park and got my win bet and exactly in at the last second. Ya gotta love.

He will be FLAT around 2 turns like all 1 turn closers...
@@marklewen9384 I'm thinking you might be right, but I'm hoping you might be wrong
From last to first, is always the most exciting when your money is on at 52-1.
over 3 lengths back from not being last.
LFG BABY!!!…
LONGSHOT FOR THE WIN
ALL THE WAY FROM THE BACK…
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🏇

HOLY ****

You Went into The Weeds on That One Huh
Big upset but just got 2wps
Is Nutella Fella on his wrong lead down the stretch or is that my imagination?
Looks like the wrong lead to me also
You’re right. Wrong lead.

@@montanamountaingarden476 I agree. Horse is still green. Still learning

Race Call:
Frank Mirhamandi
He made an error on the backsrretch, did u catch it?
@@4orrcountryNo.
Dont let this fool you, he earned a 72 beyer😂
He's a 2YO
Beat a solid field, Beyers aren’t the end all be all.
Yeah, but he's also only a 2yr old and has had limited starts, was also on his wrong lead the entire stretch, very impressive performance despite all of that
Saratoga is very fortunate to have landed Frank Mirhamandi as their
new voice / race caller.
Better than the very overrated Larry Columbus.

Are you kidding me? That is way too easy for my horse. He is already at the finish line in the horses are literally starting.
