- 1993 Breeders' Cup Classic
As Breeders' Cups go, it was a rather formful afternoon.
And then came the Classic.
And with it, the hopes and dreams of thousands who placed a wager on the final Breeders' Cup race vanished as Arcangues blew past Bertrando in the stretch to win the $3-million race.
But despite, or perhaps because of, the monumental upset, spirits weren't down among the losers after the race. It was just one of those things. Who could have figured?
"I was looking forward to winning this race for the past month," said jockey Gary Stevens, who looked every bit the winner on Bertrando. "So I'm kind of surprised at my reaction, that I'm not upset. I would have been mad if my horse hadn't run the race he did. But my horse ran a great race. He gave everything he's got. He just got beat."
Even Bertrando's trainer, Bobby Frankel, who has been known to be a bit surly after a losing race, seemed resigned to the result.
"I'm really kind of in shock," said Frankel, who has not won with 22 Breeders' Cup entrants. "I guess it just wasn't meant to be. He ran great. I'm surprised that anybody was able to catch him. When Gary (Stevens) got off the horse he said, 'Where did that (son of a gun) come from?' and I had to say, 'I don't know.' I guess it just wasn't meant to be for me this year."
Stevens thought Bertrando would win.

Best jockey post race interview ever: "I didn't even understand the instructions in the paddock!" "I don't even know how to pronounce his name!" XD Man, I love horse racing.
Bertrando played second fiddle to two of the most astounding BC performances ever: Arazi's, the Wonder Horse, juvenile win, and then this stunner.
both from europe
@@StFidjnr Arazi was Kentucky bred.
Absolutely nothing amazing that Arcangues easily beat Bertrando since Arcangues also beat the extraordinary Arazi. Arcangues had a lot of health problems but when he was at 100% he could wipe everyone out...like here...
I love how quiet the crowd got with 70 yards to go. Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
I was there and everyone was shocked asking wtf is the 11
I mean if you're about to lose all your money to a 99-1 shot you would be quiet too lol

"Bailey was 0 for 3 that day at Santa Anita when he arrived in the paddock fro the Classic. He knew little about his mount. Two weeks earlier, Bailey did not even think he was going to ride in the race. His prospective mounts were alternates in what was surely going to be an overflow field. But, at the last moment, Bailey picked up the mount on a French import, Arcangues, when the jockey originally scheduled to ride that horse, mike Smith, instead opted for Devil his Due"

Gives me goosebumps everytime I hear this stretch call.
Makes you wonder how many potentially great dirt horses were wasted on grass and vice-versa.
So true
Riskaverse trained by Pat Kelly had one of my highest dirt ratings ever but rarely ran on it.
Shortly before the race went off, Arcangues' owner put an $80,000 win bet on his horse. Given the long odds, he got over a million back for the bet plus what he got from the purse. That horse paid for his retirement many times over.
+qhsperson The win pool was 1,660,216. I don't know how it would have affected the odds if 80k had been plonked in.. but he might have still made good money!

I'll say this--the three guys who were doing the commentary were down at the track, and when the cameras came back on them after a commercial, they all had their backs to the camera because they were staring at the tote board. One of them was saying, "Did you see that? The odds? What's going on?" Live on tv. Brilliant moment.
Then they realized they were on live, turned around and tried explaining what was going on. The tote only went up to 99-1, and the horse paid off at 133-1, so perhaps the tote lit up like a pinball machine for a while.
Oddly, it's one of my favorite racing moments because it was so real.
+qhsperson What a big fucking lie that is. $8,000 I'd believe.

You can look it up, you know,.
Gutsy
Arcaungues was really 133 to 1, not because he wasn't good, it's because the betters here don't know much about him, he's got good pedigree and his trainer is one of the best in Europe
And ridden by one of the greatest classic distance riders of all time.....
so true...Bailey's a legend
"As the years have gone by, so many people have told me they bet Arcangues. If all those people had bet him, he wouldn´t have paid US$269. It was a strange race to win because I had no history with the horse, and at the time, I hadn´t developed a relationship with Fabre or the Wildensteins. It was like a one-night stand. It turned out pretty good for me. It´ll probably never happen again, but it was great that time Jerry Bailey (1957- ) Arcangues´ jockey. Greetings from Venezuela.
Thanks Caroni...Greetings from California
Yes, Why would J.Bailey be one him if he was a No Hoper!
Jerry D you are a class act on a fav or a long shot.
Jerry Bailey, the money man !!!!
I had gone to Keeneland to bet the days races with my brother in law, Blaine (RIP) who introduced me to horse racing. We owned a duplex and came home and were watching the races downstairs in his bar. I was betting J D Bailey at the time a lot. My wife ran over from our side of the duplex ,ran down the stairs and said " Tell me you bet that horse"! Of which I had a good share across the board and the exacta a couple times. More than that though, thanks for the memories Jerry D Bailey. Your are
this horse race changed horse racing history
The win that smashed Bay Meadows :(
French trained horses loved to run by Bertrando.
"A medida que pasan los años, mucha gente me ha dicho que apostó Arcangues. Si todas esas personas le hubieran apostado, no habría pagado US $ 269 a ganador. Fue una extraña forma de ganar una carrera porque no tenía historia con el caballo , y en ese momento no había desarrollado una relación con Fabre o con los Wildenstein, era como una sola noche, resultó bastante bueno para mí. Probablemente nunca volverá a suceder, pero fue genial ese tiempo
Jerry Bailey (1957- ) Jinete de Arcangues. Saludos de Venezuela.
Arcangues had back problems off and on. When he warmed up like his back was feeling good and loose, I picked him to win. Wish I had been at the track that day!
That was an incredibly strong field. Bertrand, Devil His Due, Wallenda, Pleasant Tango, Missionary Ridge. I would have put that horse at 133,000 to 1.
I remember that. The horse never ran on dirt or our racing direction. His only positive was he had Jerry bailey. But that should have been enough. Bailey was a monster. Easy money. Wish I called it.
I had heard from a source close to the Wilderstein's thatr Arcangues had a disk problem in his back and when Andre Fabre tried him on a flat, hard surface he blew away his work mate. Fabre had saddled Jolypha, a three year old filly, to run third behind A.P Indy and Pleasant Tap. Arcangues was better than Jolypha and there was no A.P. Indy in this field. It was the biggest score of my life. The exacta with Bertrando paid $1,800 for every deuce.
Exactly on the back problems. He warmed up great and ran his race.
Wildenstein, Fabre, Bailey....Horse Racing Greatness.....at all levels...
I think Arcangues would have beaten AP Indy quite easily because he beat Jolypha by more than 20 lengths in training on the sand. AP Indy beat Jolypha only by 3 lengths ...
Well done
Jerry's got a lot of Horse coming home...lucky he found a seam
JD makes his own luck.
Great win. I wonder what his odds were. He was also 133-1 and the tote only went up to 99-1.
2:34 the oak tree at Santa Antia turned to mute
I was out there that day, but I couldn't see Arcangue that day. My partner bet everything over Best-Pal & Bertrando and he also bet a $2 exacta Best-Pal & Bertrando over the field. Well, he got paid a thousand & something that day.
you'll never see a Derby or Classic contender 99-1 ever again. Especially after Mind that Bird.
133.6-1 actually

Classic :=)
$5 across on both Euro horses got me back $865.00 Thank U Mr. Bailey....
He cost me the Pick 6.
Saludos🤠
Yikes, I am pretty interested to see at least what the Trifecta, and Superfecta (if availible) was...because for the lucky bettors, they definately made out like bandits.
He cost me the Pick 6.
Over here his best price I could find was 50/1 . I put £5 n let it ride on the American odds , he paid 134.6/1
Although the crowd fell silent I think woke the whole street up with my cheering .
It's like they were all mocking Arcangues including the jockey, why didn't they be serious and talk about his finishing kick and coming from a long way back to win the race pretty easily in the end, ignore the price any horse trained by Fabre has got to be taken seriously and its a shame the American commentators just laughed about it, great performance Arcangues 👏👏
Right Arquanges definately made a crap load of people tear up their tickets that had Bertrando as a win. 133-1 is still huge odds even to this day.
Do you have a particular event from the 1999 BC that you want to see?
Lure
Most people do not want to see that again.. due to the Go For Wand break down..
4:50 99-1 is as far as we can go
He was 133.6-1 £6 win English pounds paid £821.00....
A Group 1 winner in France pays $268.... it will NEVER happen again. Horse racing odds are much different now than 20 years ago. many people just play names and numbers.
Hey do u have more super saturdays from belmont
he was at such a price because there where a lot a great horses in the race with lots more money on them.
I backed it
It was tipped in the racing post
Sadly I never had a another horse with it in my doubles💔
He cost me the Pick 6.
@@JoeKoOhNo I done some doubles and had nothing to go with it.
Always remember it was on bonfire night in 🇬🇧
a shocking end to the 1st decade of breeders cup
how about the 1987 breeders cup and the 1987 belmont and the 2002 illinois derby?
I was there
I was there, everyone was shaking their heads, wtf wtf is that horse
And any oaklawn racing festival of the south from 1992 the bachelor stakes horse name in the zone he was 4th to big sur pine bluff and derby winner lil e tee in the southwest stakes won by big sur ty
Big Sur was a nice horse trained by D Wayne and owned by William T Young (Overbrook Farms) and David Guillory gave him a great ride and paid well too. I remember that race very well 😎🤙
I just uploaded it..
Me in 1993: "Wow, Arazi is finished. He lost by six lengths to ARCANGUES six weeks ago...why is BAILEY riding him?" Didn't bet...
What about the 2 grass races from 1993?
Lure won the mile to defend his 1992 win and kotashaan won the BC turf
20 and 20 on this one....over 3200 smackers....Just bet Bailey.....
He was win less that day until the Classic. Bet Bailey...The horse was the class of the field, but Americans barely know about French horses. If you would have saw Jolypha run against AP Indy in the Classic you would know the class of Arcangues. Jolypha wasn't even close to as good as her stablemate Arcangues. If people knew the class horse he was, his odds would have been around 10-1 or lower.
1990 breeders cup distaff with post race please?
Michael Rao No way! God.
1999 breeders cup?
I did bet him 10 Marks got back 1100
@2:35 silence....
They're putt them to sleep lol with that 99 to 1
I just bought Bertrando's son :)
born to finish second...
Marquetry....Conquistador Cielo's only great son....
haha he 133 to 1
LOL look at his tongue hanging out after the race. What a dumb lucky horse. Imagine getting your life savings in on that!
Benjamin Elliott his tongue is attached with an elastic so that it breathes better so that's why she sways and is pending !!
then you say it's a lucky horse ??
1) he comfortably won this race
2) Arcangues had already won a Group 1 level racing in Europe
3) the trainer Andre Fabre is one of the best in the world and you really had to be stupid to think that it would come from France just to go around the track ...
that day many people have learned not to play without thinking .... hahaha 200/1
+jetshockey5
Zenyatta used to flop her tongue around before the race. Not always, but I thought it was funny.
AstroPunter you yanks were arogant, Look at him crossing the last 10 lengths with ears pricked....Get in.... u jealous punter
@@litogor It didn't look like a fluke. He was a decent horse that had a great day. He did win almost $2 million in his career from 19 races.
