This track announcer announced this race like he was reading an obituary. My God!
😂
You said it!
I could not agree with you more!!! Worst Call I have ever heard by far!!! and I go back aways... first horse I ever bet to WIN was John Henry... Hollwood Park.... 70's.....
He used to be a speaker in funeral...seriously
It's legal to whip your horse like that in this country lol crazy absolutely insane
When that slot opened up on the inside, that horse took off like a bat outta hell. Great horse and jockey.
I love watching the horses run but I will never get over watching Secretariat.
The GOAT! I was in high school when he won the Triple Crown. Watched all 3. I never saw Ron Turcotte use the whip. The perfect partnership of horse and rider.
That for sure but you gotta admit that Rich Strike at the Derby a few years ago was something to see!
Yes!
@@agneslong2323, he used the whip briefly, and lightly, at the beginning of the home stretch in the Derby. He never used it in the next two races.
@@roseanneroseannadanna9651not even close
The winning horse showed tremendous heart, well done 🐎👍
Yep, after being whipped... so sad.
@@nancy-katharynmcgraw2669 5 times in the final furlong isn’t excessive and those “whips” are actually very light , foam filled that make more noise than anything. Animal rights and welfare should always be paramount but I honestly see no abuse of the winning horse , the horse looked like it could run another half mile at the finish .
@@pugmahone9439 until they break a leg and get put down
@@paddington1670 I agree there are far too many horses dying while racing and a lot more should be done as the animals welfare should be paramount, thousands of horses , many of them wild are shipped from Canada every year to Japan and Korea for food, they are shipped in extremely tight crates which cause terrible distress many times resulting in death while in transit, the Canadian public needs to put pressure on their government especially in Alberta about the suffering of these horses , it’s a despicable practice.
@@nancy-katharynmcgraw2669
I don’t normally watch horse racing because of that. I simply hate seeing them whipped!
The jockeys should not be allowed to carry a whip!
Thought I'd never see the day a horse I backed doing something like this haha heroic effort

Desert Boots 🥾 in the sand unfair advantage 😁
😼.
Desert Boots of Eminent Pace - for each step, speed increases a small amount.
Starting acceleration is reduced
Good horse but a GREAT jockey, dynamite move on the inside at exactly the right time and then he let that baby go for all it was worth, nice ride. That's the way it's done folks, that's the way it's done.
Classic patient rail hugging ride, shows jockey confidence in the horse
If they had "confidence" in their horse, they wouldn't have to BEAT them with a crop over and over!!!! These races should be run on horses natural ability not cruelty!!
He was lucky that other jockeys left an opening for him. Otherwise he would have no chance.
You think them whips hurt a horse 😂 learn how whips work let alone on a 500kg animal
@@samjohnson5649 Yep, that's why in UK they only allow 7 whip strikes per race. Any more and you are at risk of suspension. Clearly it is competely safe. Modern whips do not inflict physical pain, but they still startle horses with unpleasant loud shots and in general coerce them into running beyond their physical abilities, which is unsafe by itself.
It wasn't a patient ride, the horse was outpaced early and the jockey rode him flat out from start to finish..You are not a very good race reader..
I had to watch twice more to figure out where this horse came from in this race! As a lot of times last place winners end up running up the outside of the pack (and where I was looking). This time (unusually, no?) the leaders and the pack all swung wide (making the course longer!) and this one stayed the course on the inside (shorter). Unusual, to me anyway. Thanks for sharing!
I had a friend in Australia decades ago who put some money into buying a racehorse. It had problems and was gonged out of a few races. Finally the horse was set for an inaugural race at a new race track. The horse had a bad jump from the barrier and was left behind. He ran like Desert Boots.....stayed on the inside rail and came up to pop up close to the end line way in front. Great race.
There's your ride of the month.
th-cam.com/video/4YJXkqd_tpw/w-d-xo.html
Backed it 😉
Alot ofjockies would of gave up
Credit to the jockey I wonder what price it was in running
Desert boots : "Where's this desert you promised?"
As an American who is used to watching American thoroughbred races, it's a bit strange to see the way these horses enter the final stretch all spread out across the track unlike over here where they all bunch up on the furthest rail which rarely leaves an opening and causes many to get boxed in
And that's an unfair way to end the race IDK why American tournaments don't speak against it
@@dv9239 I've never really viewed it as being unfair but that's because I never really thought about it since it's the norm over here... I've seen many races where the best horse couldn't get a clear path through because they were either accidentally or intentionally boxed in. It definitely makes it easier for jockeys to cheat and I'm not naming names but there are two who come into mind (brothers) who work together to help each other win. They've been caught cheating together but there's many times where they've gotten away with it. The American racing style helps dirty riders like them continue being dirty... Not only is it unfair but it's also dangerous. The way they bunch up together drastically increases the chances of a horse clipping hills with another and causing a catastrophic pile up. Afleet Alex's Preakness Stakes is a decent example of what I'm talking about. Scrappy T blew the turn and Afleet Alex nearly went down.
True but this race had a lot more horses than most American races.
@@historyandhorseplaying7374 Yes but no. There are 13 horses in this race and the average number of gates in our races is 14. The Kentucky Derby is the only U.S. race that I can recall having more than that but I may stand corrected. That being said, if you watch nothing else except races that are held at California tracks, specifically Santa Anita, it's understandable to make the mistake of assuming that U.S. fields typically consist of 3 to 5 horses. That's because Cali racing is going under for a variety of reasons.
@@drudanng.8567 It's not just Cali. I attend mostly Gulfstream and tracks in West Virginia, and I watch other tracks on the screen, and the vast majority of races are under 10. Luck if we get 7 or 8.
Awesome performance by Desert Boots
How an announcer takes an amazing moment in sports and sucks all the life energy and excitement out of it,
Your comment is SO funny but true. That's about emotionless as anyone could get for a race where the horse comes from last to first. He could have watched the Hindenburg in New Jersey and gone to sleep!
Obviously not an Australian race caller, they are the best in the world. They make you feel like you are riding the horse.
Give him a break, he's on Prozac !
Yeah he was boring
@Arsenal Manic u support Arsenal that’s abuse in itself
Yeah, but he was the only one who ran straight and stayed on the rail, all of the others were all over the track and drifting out so badly that they ran 50% farther.
I saw that also. They looked like they could sit a horse.
Smart jockey, kept his horse on the rail, saved distance, had something left at the end dispite being bumped out of the gate.
Well, maybe not quit 50% farther, but yeah, he jumped on the rail and they gave it to him.
Ah. How many fans of Secretariat's clicked this just in case.....
Lmao no but I watched the movie I have never cried so much before it
Edit: ohh wait I cry in every animal movie
no drugs here.
More of a Bojack man myself
At first, from the thumbnail, I had to look closely a second time and then watch the whole race to make sure it wasn't Secretariat. Now I go over to watch Secretariat's three performances at his triple crown.
@@danielfronc4304 drugs
An excellent run. My all time favourite though is the Australian Miracle Mile win in 1971 by Mount Eden. Lost 50m at the start when galloping but then settled down and caught the others and won easily.
‘A shade cosily’ - finely nuanced!
This race reminds me of how the great Secretariat ran. He leaned against the back gate and was always last before unleashing his legendary speed on the pack.
I love how Secretariat had his own plan, that horse wanted to come from the back to show off what an amazing athlete he was! Just breathtaking to watch!
That was until he hit the Belmont Stakes. That day he decided to show everyone just how great he was. He took the lead right away,toyed with Sham and then pulled away. It was an awesome performance that day.
@@heartfanjim01 exactly. He went right to the lead along the rail before the clubhouse turn. It was in the Derby that he was last on that turn, and then gassed the field on the outside. Set what's still the Derby record running almost the whole race on the outside.
He broke Sham. That great horse never raced again after the Belmont. Had he been born late enough to run as a 3 year old the following year, he could have been a Triple Crown winner. Same thing with Alydar.
That's the catchphrase of racing, isn't it? "It ain't over til it's over."
I think it’s more considered for baseball
@@cornelwilson1369 I suspect it could apply to a great many competitions.
@@kwgridPhrases are funny things. Have also heard "It ain't over until the fat lady sings".
Congratulations, Desert Boots ! Wonderful win !
Horse racing at its finest, some horse learning to like the rail and adjust accordingly. Beautiful finish!
Very well ridden race. It looks like a pretty tight turn and everybody except Desert Boots went wide. Normally in a sprint one would not get that chance, but from the back Desert Boots' jockey had a good view and could navigate the rail... it was his only chance, of course. In staying races it's a different story, and perhaps the king of comebacks is Calidoscopio, who as a 9 and 10-year-old entire did it in both at the Breeders' Cup Marathon and the Brooklyn Handicap (from 30 lengths back). It apparently was his idea of how to run a race, and at that age he should have some clue. In middle distance, Winx made a long career out of swooping wide from last to first around the turn into the straight, a tougher but much safer proposition than sneaking up the inside... good enough to win her last 33 races in a row.
Cheers I enjoyed reading your analysis and anecdotes - makes me want to research Calidoscopio - I have a soft spot for veterans who maintain good battling or brilliant racing careers. - we saw Winx race so well down here in the Pacific she is a gem.
Listening to this was about as exciting as me reading my grocery list
what a race, that was sweet! thanks for uploading.
This announcer was like 'SIRI' in iPhone
Nicely ridden by that jockey despite the atrocious start from the gates. Desert Boots. That's a good horse.
I was on this horse as well. Good winner, only a fiver at 9/2, but still, thought it had blown the chance in the first furlong or two... slowly made it up and then I was pretty confident it would win.
Last to first and he's number 1 and ends up 1st. Lol well done to the jockey for not giving up
Well, I'm pretty sure that the horse had something to do with it.
Just like the song,You're always be my number 1 one?Hehehe ?
Its more fun in the Philippines! Welcome? Ok Loves see you soon, miss you my Loves?
Amen tayo dyan?mmm..
What an un-inspiring commentry for such a amazing amazing race victory!
This is straight out of a movie. :p
It seems the best way to win (whether by luck or design) at Southwell is to lay well off the pace, stay tight to the rail on the inside and then cruise to victory over all the tired horses who have been taken far too wide.
th-cam.com/video/4YJXkqd_tpw/w-d-xo.html
Spot on mate, see it time and time again.
Very true. Love seeing this kind of race. So EXCITING!!!!
It ain't over till it's over and as long as you can get through you can win
Wayne Harrison had that one on in play betting at 10, 0000 - 1
😂 belting comment.
When a Mark Johnston horse is that far off the pace you know they're going too fast and when you go too fast at Southwell you're a sitting duck.
Jockeys with no clue doing mid 11 second furlongs...
@@Kevjohno what time per furlong do you believe they should be going?
@@jamesvaughan7697 I reckon 12 second furlongs
They were going at 40mph at the start and 35mph at the finish.
Can we have a moment of silence please for the layers on Betfair 😇
in running must have been any price. make your own price up and you could still have got a bet on.
🤣👍
It went 460/1 in running
there you have it folks donkey racing at its best LOL
Never give up. Never. Give. Up.
That was nothing short of phenomenal to come from stone last three furlongs out to win over the second shortest distance in racing.
Phar Lap characteristically was held back behind the other horses in a race and came from behind to dramatically win every major horse racing contest in Australia, Mexico and the USA multiple times. Phar Lap is arguably the greatest racing horse in history. Phar Lap had an excellent pedigree on both sides and several positive qualities when he was purchased from his original owner in New Zealand and shipped to Australia, but at the time of his purchase he was small and emaciated. To rationalize his unprecedented success in winning races, Phar Lap was asserted to be a "freak" and not a normal horse, so that he could be weighted down verily heavily when racing to handicap him, and he still won.
Phar was gelded -- too boot! What a gaff!
In South Africa, year 1979, in Durban July Handicap, a horse named Jamaican Rhumba did the same. After giving its jockey a horrid time refusing to get into the gates, it loitered behind reluctant to run forward, then suddenly rocketed forward, overtaking everything that was running on the turf.
Used to go to horse racing and have witnessed a horse that is last win, so spectacular!!!!!!
The announcer sounds like he was wishing he had a different job. Talk about a boring call!!!! It was an exciting race!! Come on, man!! Perk up!!!!!
He's a Brit - whatda expect?
“”It’s all about Deserts Boots” give that horse it’s glory folks
wonderful run Desert Boots
It's not how you start, it's how you finish ! 🏇
Give old Breslin a gold medal for that effort 👏
I appreciate an announcer that doesnt act like hes on crack. What a nice change. Hes calling a race.
i hate it when they whip the horse. my old boy never got whipped & he was awesome
Agreed. I think they would run better if they werent to be soar and in pain while trying to run. So their rider can win some money
@@bellasteppedonmahtoez932
Sore.😉👍
Had desert boots 5/1 and Nelly's money 4/1 both win for my 1st 2 of my lucky 15 yesssss......you can guess what happened next guys yep next 2 lost and I got £41 lol
We’ve all been there pal 😂
2 favs down the toilet after. standard.
One was 11/10 one was 3/1
Thats cos ur a hammer fan lol
@@davidmathias1007 not doing to bad at the moment mate for a change lol 👍
"Horse and rider"make us a 12 to 1 odds of losing,we'll show them.
Amazing, Unbelievable, Magnificient Riding by the Confident Jockey and the Lovely Response from the Lively Horse. Superb Race.* (V.M.Sridhara)
When the horse wears #1 it's not a surprise.
What do you expect, they all have him the rail. 😂😂😂
Hard to believe all the jockeys would drift off the rail to make space for this horse to just waltz through. Fishy.
Reminds me of jockey Jack Kein at Cenntenial Race Track in Colorado. If it was a long race he would be last and end up winning. This was in the 80's. Great jockey. Thia was in the days of Billie Hunt, Jimmy Power, Gearge Munsell, Eddie R Caroll, Willie Shoemaker and so many other greats. Love horse racing, both Quarter horse and Thorobred.
Last one in go's to the glue factory. Run horses run !! : )
Desert Boots was running like a tremendous machine at the end.
The horse saved all the ground on the inside and had the shortest trip. Some of the other horses were so far outside that they were used up by the end.
Best to see race from last to first..👍👍
Jockey chartered, strangled horse. Terminators. 🏇
Was awesome!
Desert boots!
Yeah Desert Boots. You showed them!
The far rail was always the worst place to be up the straight at Southwell. That's twice now though in recent weeks that something has been tailed off early over 6f and stayed on that side to win.
That’s what you call, Working for your money!
that is just unbelievable...wow...jockey needs a raise
Just saw this video. Funny thing the winning horse was wearing #1, yet was running from the #5 gate. Have never seen that in any race before.
had perfect run of the course up the inside throughout but very impressive to make up that ground as only over 6f
😳 What the....???? Looks like the 🍺 jockeys AND the horses🍹 were all drunk in that race!!! My goodness! 😜🤪
He runs like Secretariat did back in the day. 😄
He got the best trip on the last half of this race.
I got so inspired by the unexpected win of Desert Boots that I named my horse painting after him!
My horse did this and lit up the tote board at SD a long time ago.
Lots of hugs and kisses for the horse after I bet
Love it when you stick it to the book makers
One hell of a ride.....Bravo Andrew
Secretariat was the best racing horse ever , heart of a true champion.
Geeze, all the horses are all over the place!
Que no mame este wey!!!!...el esfuerzo de este caballo mereció mucho más.
when a horse is feeling good and a jockey knows it
Great announcers voice!
Damn that should be a movie coming to Disney soon
Mind that Bird 2009 Kentucky Derby. Best come from behind I have ever seen.
Great ride-But damn a lot of continual whip
7 times or so I think I counted in the final 2f. Not sure what the rules are these days with over usage of the whip. Great ride though, happens quite a lot though on the AW horses from last to first. Maybe not from as far as that one off the pace though.
yeah, it's disgusting. they should stop hitting the horse. if the horse was truly enjoying it then the whip isn't needed. whips should only be used for light encouragement or for directional purposes. considering the age of these horses, this can cause long lasting physical and psychological damage
@Michael Burkinshaw no? if they are enjoying it then they will run for miles.
@@geordies1237 I race, and you are right it is only 7 times that im allowed to whip the horse, but unfortunately some horses need more than 7 whips, they are fetching in a new rule, and that is the whip can be used 10 times hard on the horses butt, which i agree with, but they could still put the amount of times the whip can be used, even higher.
The winner look like it can run another race today lol
th-cam.com/video/4YJXkqd_tpw/w-d-xo.html
What a good horsey. Hope he made someone a lot of money.
The commutator had a nightmare 😳
I hate it when these animals are beaten like that !!! if you have a good and loving relationship with the horse, then you don't have to hit him. Then he'll do his best anyway !! Love and trust is the key to victory !!
Happens all the time at southwell, 1 laura pearson was on yorkshire pirlo, I called her for everything and she won aswell :)
th-cam.com/video/yXycHK7Cf1I/w-d-xo.html
Exactly nothing spectacular about this at Southwell its happens regularly Van Dijk about a month ago
and the old boy General Tufto many times after being tailed off in running
@@1414yorks genral tufto popped up my fb memories other wk think was last time had a line up! That was 1 them
Secretariat used to win his races by coming from behind. The one race where Secretariat did not start out from behind was the Belmont.
Secretariat took the lead from the start and continued to increase his speed throughout the race. I remember watching that race as a kind. It was incredible. That jockey could not have slowed down Secretariat if he had wanted to.
I firmly believe many race horses know exactly what they are and revel in their power.
This race is another example of a horse saying, "Yeah you think you are something? Let me show you what I can do!"
Everyone talks about Secretariat's Belmont, but to me his Preakness was even more incredible. He broke very poorly, was last on the first turn, and then decided he wanted to run up front. He passed an entire field of Grade I stakes-winners like they were standing still and had enough left in the tank to hold on and win. He was, indeed, a tremendous machine.
". . . comes from a fair way back . . ." Yeaaaaah
That was just about Secretariat's position in the Derby, at the clubhouse turn, except that he passed the field on the outside.
That was exciting!
Fixed race - 0:42 inside lane was kept open
Yep, well get called conspiricy theorists though but race fixing goes on much more often than die hard fans like to admit. And no jockey is innocent, as it often takes the whole field to be in on the scam to pull it off.
I was watching how that jockey right out of the gates was bobbing his head up and down hard, I said that can't be the winner he is gonna scare that horse...I was wrong 💪👏
What a ride wow !!!!
Upside down 10-1 and so many other horses were 💯 on “no try” instructions.
There once was a horse named Zenyatta.
Oh my goodness... the race caller needs new glasses. The winner Desert boots hit the front at the top of the straight almost and wasnt called until they crossed the line.
Desert boots had on desert kicks ..
Moral of the story don't give up
Watch Donnaguska if you like these last to first horses. The announcer is funny. "Donnguka, where did she come from? 15 lengths back at the turn. Another sprint, just like this. Although I didn't find any videos here, a horse named Quicken Tree was one of these last to first horses.
The Queen's a Hose bag is out by a head, the Queen's a Hose bag is out by 2 heads, the Queen's a Hose bag is in the lead by a length, the Queen's a Hose bag is in front by two lengths, The Queen's a Hose bag, the Queen's a Hose bag, the Queen's a Hose bag is Douched!
