Eight Belles, I never would have named my horse that. This is the definition, and she became it. Eight Bells, when a sailor has died he or she can be honoured with the sounding of eight bells; meaning "end of the watch". The term "eight bells" can also be used in an obituary, as a nautical euphemism for finished.
It's too bad these media types go after a few "stories" and ignore the rest of the field. I've often seen the winning horse just shrugged off like he didn't exist, and the "star" horses, whether they lost or won with all the press. Thanks, Partymanners for such a long piece (pre-post and race). It is much appreciated. I don't have a TV, and internet is about the only way I get to see these horse races.
Fantastic coverage of the race and sends a great message about racing to the rest of the world about NA horse racing via RUclips. If you love your racing you will love this 40min, do yourself a favour set aside time and watch this!! Thankyou very much for making it available on behalf of everybody.
One might think that after all this time we would start to look for Mike Smith in the middle of the race track coming from way back but we don't. One day we will learn :)
Hi bullo. I think it is getting worse in the US. The best race seems to be the Arc de Triomphe. The Melbourne Cup and Japan Cup are worth watching also. The Cox Plate has become rubbish also.
So You Think was not that good, and neither was this field. I suppose that this year will be a repeat of last year, and Flat Out will be favorite. It seems the same old horses without SYT and the winner here. I am slightly interested in how Wise Dan goes, as I understand he is good. The rest of the BC this year is very boring. Maybe the Japan Cup will be better. :)

Four months earlier, Gary Stevens won the "Battle of the Exes" against Chantal Sutherland, and here they finish 1-2.

Mike has the most breeders cup wins
One of the best race calls I've ever heard.
If Chantal takes back and doesn't get pushed by 4 horses this race ain't even close

Mike Smith = Jockey Hall of Fame
Einstein huh
Game On Dude was surrounded by challengers and put them all away, and then Drosselmeyer game from out of nowhere at the last second. Awesome race.
Man, when this horse wins, he wins big!!!

It’s odd that a female horse won the Classic before a female jockey
Came up short with Giacomo, Tiago, and Zenyatta - but Drosselmeyer got there!
Excellent
ESPN is the best at covering horse racing. NBC could be the worst. The FOX coverage isn't much better only one program so we will just have to see.
wow that drosselmeyer has stamina like no other...!!! breed him with zenyatta and you would have a superhorse..!!!!
Lol mike said I ain’t letting my ex beat me !!
Mike Smith nails Chantal Sutherland !!
Dwl😁😁😁😁
Mike downs Chantal, that's gotta sting...
