    Arazi, the horse who just “ran by them”. What if he never suffered the injury as a 2-yr old which, basically, cost him his career? But, his performance in the 1991 BC Juvenile will forever be etched in the memories of those who had seen this race…

    Was that really 30 years ago?
    Feeling old.
    Brilliant performance by Arazi, truly one of the greatest 2 year olds.

    This always reminded me of really badly staged racing scenes from the movies, as Black Beauty or whatever shoots past all the others.

    That’s exactly what I’ve always said Mike. Whenever you saw these Disney films you always thought that’s ridiculous as the star goes past the rest of the horses as if they were standing still and yet Arazi really did it.

    One of the most iconic performances of all time.

    It’s the shock in the commentators voice as he spits out the USA good thing. Just a huge wow moment.
