If it's not secretariat, then no.

Bro that sounds not even the best call of a Bofa race but congratulations on just now discovering this horse.

Am I allowed to say that?

Without knowing shite about horse racing, or having ever watched more than a handful of races in my life, I know the greatest call ever includes the term “tremendous machine”.

Whatever it is would have to include the phrase, “And down the stretch they come!”

Maybe the most iconic announcer comment ever.

Secretariats record of 2:24 for a mile and a half is not only a Belmont record but a World Record for all turf at that distance.

He also still holds the record for the Kentucky Derby...and retrospectively was given the record for the Preakness.

The greatest horse racing call is the Smarty Jones Belmont.

It gave me goosebumps when I watched it live. It still does even watching it on tape.

No question the Belmont is his supreme moment, but what I am amazed at most is that he went into turn 1 at the Preakness last (just like the derby), but came out of the turn first, all while on the outside. Amazing.

Still can't believe he got chased down like that.

Birdstone just put the jets on the last furlong.
