Botched the start, stuck in the back with no clear path, sidestepped her way down the straight, found an opening and blitzed them to the post. Now that's a horse to remember !!
Terrific win and great race call by Ian Craig. Callers like him, John Tapp and the immortal Ken Howard all had excellent speaking voices and were the best at their game.. Unlike the extremely mediocre Mark Sheahan that they've got now. They surely must have been desperate to have hired him.
Type in Veandercross Mackinnon Stakes win....If Dan Mielecki put a bit of effort in the call he would have made the video better to watch!! No wonder he went to harness racing..
Dan Lickymydicky was an extremely average racecaller, and that's being kind. Never hear of him these days, even calling the ' Red Hots '. Must have taken early retirement.
Matty Johns bought me here
haha same, to bad we can't see the bob hawke headlock
couge33 yep
Me too 👍
Yep.. me too .. apparently Bob Hawke smelling Kennedy’s armpit right about now ..
Watched this again just then. Still gives me massive chills and brings a tear to eye...
What a great call from the legend Ian Craig
still one of the most amazing wins i ever seen
Rip Bob Hawke that was for you mate
The reaction of John Singleton and Bob Hawke was priceless
It sure was mate. I heard Singo had $100,000 straight out at 10/1. No wonder he planted that smooch on old Bob.
@@jakartaman3365he bought all the drinks for all the bars for the rest of the day, still a Belle Du Jour bar at Rosehill in her honour
The year 2000 commentry now sounds like 1974 doco
Yep, my favourite jockey as a teenager - he rode some awesome races in his time. Pity the weight got the better of him, so much talent there.
Lenny Beasley is a legend; best ride I've seen
One of the best Slipper wins.

My favourite jockey, wish he was still going around. He would give jmac a run for his money.
Lol
@Verity12ful .....best slipper win I have ever seen
