I remember as a yoot they would show replays of a race or two on the afternoon news.

Here is the 1984 Arlington Million call. Skip ahead to about 3:07 for the start of the race. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzPAMVZ5m-w

That was a great race for me. I bet $200 on John John. I think he paid $4.20. That was a HUGE bet for me as a broke ass college student home for the summer and working in an Italian restaurant. That may have been a whole week's pay. I don't even need to watch the video. "Royal Heroine down along the rail. John Henry LIKE A BULLET!!"

Yep! His voice was as memorable as a Jack Brickhouse when I was a kid.

I don't gamble, but if I did, thoroughbreds would be the only thing I'd be interested in.

Not a wholesome trottin' race? How'd you like to see some stuck up jockey boy sittin' on Dan Patch? Makes your blood boil. I should say.
