The first part of the race reminded me of 1973 Belmont, where Secretariat and Sham went at each other early and opened up 10 lengths on the field. If my gramdma was here she would of had flashbacks to that Belmont, but I know she was looking down from heaven with a smile on her face.
Great race, makes the triple crown look all the more impressive when secretariat had a huge lead over sham, outstanding horse.

Never been a horse this dominant that makes it look so easy. Big Red always has my heart but this horse is something else.
Frankle in the uk
Winx
I was there on the rail at the top of the stretch. I saw him pass by Life is Good like he was standing still and cried the whole time he ran down the stretch. An incredible, once in a lifetime horse.
why did this comment make me emotional ahah I’m done
We should take a moment and appreciate Larry Colmus for calling each race so perfectly
He was on another level
Life is Good gave it everything he had, he ran his eyeballs out, got beaten by a phenom, any other year he's horse of the year!
Agreed. Life is Good doesn't get the recognition he deserves. What a horse! I would breed a brood mare to him for sure!
This horse is something else. I wish they would race next year.
Flightline is such a stunning horse and racer, really sucks he isn’t going to be racing anymore!! He has been sold to be bred so no more races for him 😢
Loved every minute of this BC. Flightline has some engine.. the veterinary care and the attention to the horses was really gd. Who said American racing was boring far from it. Great coverage here in UK. Aidan and Charlie Moore and Buick and Doyle did Europe proud
Personally prefer american racing 😅
Just awesome. I watched the race and can tell you it was jaw dropping. Watching the replay is almost as good. Fabulous horse.
Que pena que no pudiera competir la triple corona,sin duda alguna hubiera sido un hito en la historia de las carreras.
Impresionante su velocidad y cambios de ritmo con una superioridad apabullante.
Simplemente FLIGHTLINE!!!!!!!!!!🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯💯💯
Breathtaking 🏇🏿🌹🍀
As incredible a Race Horse as has ever stepped hoof on a track. Flightline is a True Phenom and World Champion. If you don't see ultra rare greatness, then you are blind.
Just an amazing performance!
A legend on the making
My friend Richie made the board , I was proud of him, got his connections a paycheck. Shut some people up . His last few races make him look like a pretty good horse.
WOW!! FABULOUS
Memories of Secretariat and Sham there. He is a great horse alright. It takes a fantastic athlete to sustain that pressure and let down in the straight so convincingly. Would have liked to seen more than six starts! Stud value massive (and guaranteed). What a great race it would have been between him and Frankel...throw in Winks (Aust) and you would have walked over broken glass to see the race. BUT, throw in Big Red and he would have crushed them all! No horse has gone faster than Secretariat, a massive leap in modern training techniques has not broken that record...it's always arguable, we all love a champion and we all have a favourite. For me, Secretariat was the greatest of them all!
The 'massive leaps' in training have added only speed (at sprints) not routes and definitely not stamina. Secretariat's records still stand. Can't realistically compare eras at this point. It's obvious Flightline breathes different air, but he had to be handled just so, to get this far. And now he's gone, which is a shame for the sport.
We'll never know. Personally I find the Flightline story lacking in mysticism. His two season campaign felt a bit calculated, in fact it was almost too boring for a such an exceptional horse. I don't know, the horse just didn't capture my imagination like Zenyatta or Arrogate did.
Super powerful horse😍🤩
Speechless 😮.....very impressive indeed
No one can doubt it is a very good horse, but to be a true alltime legend you HAVE to run more than six races. You have to show that you can train on and do it the year after at least. Sadly we will never know now, because people who already have enough money would rather have even more, than give racing fans, and themselves, the joy of watching what COULD have become the greatest of all time if they had kept it racing.
What makes his big move even more impressive is that they caught the 3/4 in 1.07!
Great job Life is Good and Taiba!! I hope Epicenter is ok!
Lateral condylar fracture. Minor injury, he'll be fine
Fantastic horse 🐎 all the best at farm boy 👏 👌 😀 🙌
😮I was stunned
Not me lol got watch his other races horse is sick
Nice move,flightline run very gracefully very light liked Secretariat
Wow! 8 lengths! Cool Name! 😃🐴🌌🐝
Possibly the best ever.
Secretariat likeって言ってるのかな
まさにセクレタリアトの再来…
Good, knew he was
Gona take him
So happy, and also for
2,3,4 winners. Yeah!
One of the best horse i had ever seen..
Wow that was Secretariat-like indeed
Imagine frankel and this horse racing against each other that would be race of a life time with the rest of the horses finished in a heap 15 lengths back …..Frankels still number one in my eyes has won a lot more group 1s 2of the best horses I’ve ever witnessed going back a hood few years slip anchor .oh so sharp reference point all super stars fir Henry Cecil but this pair are a cut above 👏👏👏👏👏that put shivers down my spine last night watching the breeders cup 👏👏👏
A fabulous horse on the turf. It would be difficult to compare the two. And Frankel had stamina as well. A shame he never came over here to run in the BC.
@@suemich2319 yeah hard to compare both superstars in different eras on different surfaces frankel raced 9 times more unbeaten and 7 group1 races in a row unbeaten which is a European record also am Scottish and prob being a bit biased to the uk horse plus Henry Cecil was my fav trainer
@@suemich2319 Frankel is the greatest turf miler of all time. Sir Henry Cecil knew there were stamina issues with Frankel going longer than 8-9F and kept him at those distances. Frankel did win at 10F but the never raced in the Arc or Epsom Derby, both at 1-1/2M, which would have had much larger and deeper fields in terms of quantity and quality. 8 of Frankel's 14 wins had 6 or fewer horses on the field. No doubt he is an all time great. I don't blame the connections for racing him at distances that optimized his chances of winning. But, he never faced the greatest turf horses by skipping the Arc and Derby.
while sitting outside the stall I heard a stable hand say 'hell's coming to breakfast'
You've commented that on every video so far about the classic. We get it
Ya baby Flightline my Favorite of all time he played with Life is good he came in 5th place couldn't even come in the money Flightline toyed with with him Unreal Horse I said 3 races ago this Horse is one of a kind The Jockey never took the crop out in any of his races this Horse is not a animal He's like a Mustang car Hope he runs next year Goooo Flightline your the best ever .
@@frankdeangelo6327 best ever with 5 races. Look up a horse called Dr. Fager and tell me about best. This horse only lost to Damascus twice because hedavor who was Damascus stable mate killed him the other two times they ran together no hedavor Dr. Gager won easy. And Dr. Fager still owns the world record mile. And it'd been over 50 years. Now that's a horse you could make an argument for best ever. Not a horse thsts raced 5 times.
@@liberalrepublican7656 She's looking for attention by bragging about something that didn't happen. Just ignore :)
@@MikeSmith-cn6ub Agree with you I don’t understand all this hyperbole after just 6 races .
Ghostzapper was even better.
They announced his retirement today no surprise there. Greed to breed instead of racing him in Dubai or trying him on the grass
Cuando los dueños de caballos entiendan que lo más hermoso de un pura sangre de carreras son las carreras por encima del dinero estaremos en la mejor era del hipismo de todos los tiempos. Me entristece mucho que flightline deje de correr porque desde hace muchísimo tiempo ví carreras de caballos y siempre busque alguno que siempre derrotase a los demás y cuando lo ví por primera vez sentí que había encontrado lo que por siempre había anhelado, ahora después de tener ése héroe nos lo quitan de la manera más violenta y sin siquiera darle una chance de que sé convierta de ser el mejor de todos los tiempos. Vayan sigan llenando sus cuentas bancarias de dinero pues eso es lo que quieren pero ya dejen de vendernos humo.
Would love to see that horse at 1 or 2 big races in England next year
We.dont have the prize money to tempt these horses to come why would they travel for peanuts. Phenomenal money in Australia USA Japan and Dubai. Kevin Ryan's horse was 2nd and his prize money was better than winning here. Sad but true
Shame but will never happen. I’d love that too obviously
They already announced his retirement 😡
If you are not impressed by the pace and strength of Flightline, it may be due to: you have no passion for the sport, you have never run scared or chased after a thief, you preferred to buy roses for your wife and not invest in it before, you like it more a zebra or a donkey than a horse, you are colorblind and confuse shades of green with red or they didn't take you to the park to ride the ponies.
The horse will tell you whether he wants to go on for another year. But what does man do. Retire him to stud after 6 starts. All motivated by money. Rather then doing what is best for the horse.
Very special horse
Flavian Prat is an Amazing and Extraordinary Jockey.
My Favorite.
But, Cigar was the Greatest Horse of all time.
Great performance,Shame Epicentre had to pull up injured,id liked to have seen him race more but its all about money 💰
Lo siento mucho por ti, yo también estoy decepcionado. Descubrí ése caballo cuando nadie hablaba de el. Habrá con el tiempo mucho debate sobre cuál es mejor, lo absurdo es que no dejaron al caballo demostrarlo
Hello Juan,I hope I've translated your reply properly but your right,I don't think any horse on that track would have beaten him and I'm glad Epicentre is OK to race again,it's a shame we won't see Flightline racing again but he's beaten everything he's raced so they can earn lots of money from stud fee's,enjoy your day 👍
@@Western-be2zs gracias amigo
it sounds as if there are 150 horses hooves hitting the ground. Is someone adding sound?
Wow what a race what a horse best horse of the 21st century for sure.
Good horse for sure but even though bar is pretty high after only 7 races. I guess only time will tell and people will think what they want. Heck there are still people thinking that easy goer was better than sunday silence. And that was 33 years ago...lol
I wasn't financial free until my 40's and I'm still in my 40's, bought my third house already, earn on a monthly through passive income, and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn't matter if you don't have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future!
Investing in the financial market is a grand choice I made.
I understand that tomorrow isn't promised to anyone, but investing today is hard for me now because I have no idea of how and where to invest in. I would be happy if you could advise me based on how you went about yours, as lam ready to go the passive income path.?
I invest across the top markets but not by myself though. I follow the guidelines of MEGAN ALEXIS KAYLEE. you might have heard of her. I can correctly say she's worth her salt as an investment advisor as her diversification skills is top-notch, I say this because I see that in her results as my portfolio grows by averages of 20 to 30% every month, unlike I can say for my IRA which has just been trudging along. my portfolio just mirrors what she places and not just on some particular industries of my choosing. she gave me that financial freedom I needed
That's great, your investment advisor must be really good, I have seen testimonies of people using the help of investment advisors in making them more financially stable. Do you mind sharing more info on this person?
look her up on the internet with her name. she's quite popular for her services as she was recently featured on CNN. She can work with anyone irrespective of where you're located
Investment is that tiny line that separates the rich from the poor.
Imagine if these great horses of today had to carry weight like the real greats .. 139 for dr fager
We get it Frankkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk. Comment on the race. Stop being Flightline naysayer.. Don't be jealous of the G O A.T.
Hahaha the goat. He won 6 races including maiden special weight and allowance. So only 4 stakes and we’re comparing him to the best ever. Look up Cigar won 16 in a row won every big race and won the breeders cup classic in that streak. The hype train 🤦♂️
@@chrisholten460 Exactly it’s funny how even the experts are jumping on the GOAT wagon they should know better.
They need to remind themselves to look at the records of REAL great horses who had actual racing careers.
Whats happened to Epicenter?
Vanned off. Let's hope it was just a minor injury.
Ankle injury vet said.
Condylar fracture, a horse I worked with came back from the same injury.
@@roninslv thanks for that Johnny
@@suemaher5282
Breeders' Cup released an update on Epicenter at about 8:30 p.m. Saturday that said the horse has settled into the equine hospital.
"After further evaluation by Dr. Larry Bramlage and his counterparts at Rood & Riddle Equine Hospital, Epicenter was found to have sustained a repairable displaced condylar fracture to his right forelimb. He is settled for the night and will undergo surgery in the morning."
Sadly I put my bet on life is good thinking Irad would be able to do another upset
I figured if he could stay in LIG's zip code he'd catch him and that's what happened. FL is a beast!
Before anyont thinks this very good horse was in the league of Secretariat, think again. Secretariat owns the Ky Derby, Preakness and Belmont records, Flightline has no record times. Secretariat still owns the dirt 1 1/2 world record and that was as a 3 year old. Secretariat raced over 20 times, Flightline 6. On the exact same track Authentic ran a half second faster in the Classic 2 years ago. 2 minutes flat is fast for 1 1/4 but not record breaking. In fact this time only puts Flightline in 9th for the fastest Breeder's Cup Classic and it was on a fast track, lovely weather and he had a perfect trip. Flightline is very good, but the numbers just don't stack up. Trainers in the last 10 years or so are very carful about when and where the big money horses run all with an eye of getting huge $ in stud fees. That's the bottom line and that's the case here. Ditto for Justify or Authentic and American Pharaoh. It's all about $$$$
They say Secretariat wasn’t at his peak as a three year old, he was still maturing. Imagine him at four!
@David Turco…It’s unfair to speak about Flightline like that . I watched Sectetariat and yes those were three monster races he ran , but outside of that he proved beatable . I recall a claimer named Onion defeating him in the Whitney and a good horse named Prove Out beating him in the Woodward after spotting him seven lbs. Flightline ran a beautiful race in the Met Mile coming within one second of the world record of Dr. Fager , who was the fastest horse on the planet at a mile . Dr. Fager carried 134 lbs when he set that record , I don’t think Secretariat ever carried even 130 lbs. I could go on but enough said . Flightline was the best horse in training in North America before the BC Classic and proved it when he won it never being hit , just hand ridden under mild urging . Now hopefully he’ll sire some champions like himself . God Bless him .
@@robertlosasso4222 btw. Secretariat was never whipped in those triple crown races and did it all on his own. You mentioned him never carrying more then 130 lbs but you probably know that Secretariat had a huge necks and a huge belly and had more mass to move around the track then most horses. As far as weight being carried by a horse, do you really think a horse carrying 5 lbs more has a disadvantage? The horses are 1200 lbs and I bet 5 or even 10 lbs has no effect on how fast they run or effects their endurance.
@@CamaroKidd2022 I all ready made my case , you can say what you want but weight does make a difference . Secretariat lost to Prove Out with Prove Out carrying four more lbs than him . And Onion beat him , a claimer . His mile and a quarter time is only for the Kentucky Derby. Spectacular Bid owns the world record for that distance and his time for the Preakness was never officially validated , there were two different times in that race . Dr. Fager carried over 130 lbs in every race during his four year old career that includes the Vosburgh with 139 lbs. and was undefeated. Flightline could have broken a couple of records but his connections and his rider chose wisely In gearing him down under hand rides never touching him with the whip . There was only one Secretariat , one Dr. Fager and one Flightline who were and are great horses . Only time will tell with Flightline when some of his off spring make it to the races .
Awesome never seen a horse apart from Frankel be so much better than the rest. Almost makes that race look ridiculous.
Retire him to go make babies. This horse deserves a nice easy retirement. Flightline has earned it. 6 races is all I need to see of this magnificent beast. Will be remembered as one of the greats. This race was over at the moment he took the track in the post parade. Flightline actually slowed his pace in the parade and had to be coaxed to catch up. That my friends was posturing. He knows he is "the alpha".
He has been.
@@meganproffitt424 Looking forward to seeing what his offspring can do.
They should have raced him next year to give back to racing fans.
Try him on the grass or send to Dubai
外星馬
Wonderful win. Sucks to see the horse in second be whipped to go faster. There’s really no need to do that every few seconds
AUTHENTIC keenland BREEDERS CUP TIME WAS FASTER THAN
AMERICA PHARAOH
FLIGHTLINE
AUTHENTIC WAS PRESSED AND RIDDEN MR ALL CAPS. lol. FLIGHTLINE WAS UNDER WRAPS WITH 200 METERS TO GO. Do you have any clue what that means? He woulda smashed Authentics time.
What a horse would have given secretariat a run for his money and maybe even beating him what a horse flightline
@psychobabble…If you think 2:00 flat is average, you don’t know nothing about horse racing. Those horses were pretty good, it just so happens that they were defeated by a Superior horse that only comes along about every 30 years.
He was right off the lead going 6f in 1:07 and change. Unreal fractions.
@@ronniegraves1223 It’s not accurate more like 1:09
@@valerieteti1755 my bad. I was so focused on him that I heard the announcer say 107 and 4 and didn't even look at the time on the screen. The announcer misspoke. All these people barking at his average time is crap. Every race he could have gone much faster but wasn't pushed because he buried all of them. Jock rarely touches him.
15 mph headwind and restrained last 16th. The ignorant comments on here are incredible. It is well known that Authentic, also a son of Into Mischief (like Life is Good) was inferior to Life is Good. Life is Good, to date, is Into Mischief’s best son. Baffert will tell you this, as he trained both. LIG ended his career in Pletcher’s barn. By the way, Flightline’s syndicate value was just put at 184 million dollars, dwarfing the 1973 valuation of 6 million for Secretariat.
@@hankmoodiness7941 That’s a ridiculous comparison. Secretariat’s syndication was nearly 50 years ago. Before you say anything about people’s “ignorant” statements take a look at yours.
9 lengths? Secretariat won by 31 bro
LOL. This was the Breeders Cup Classic, Bro. It's 10F bro. It was vs the best the horses in the world, Bro. Annnd...for the record.... Flightline won 6 races, by 71 lengths. Vs Dubai world cup winner and other Grade 1 winners, from 7f up to 10f. No one ever even CLOSE ....ANNNND...never asked to even run. He woulda ran a 1:58 and change in PC if asked. Secretariat had 3 attempts at 6-races in a row. Never did win in the way Flightline did, annnnnddd EVEN with 3 attempts at 6 races in a row, (Flightline got 1 attempt), Secretariat couldn't even win 6 races in a row. In addition to that, he lost 25% of the time he raced. 25% of the time Secretariat stepped on the track, he lost. I'm not saying Flightline is better than Secretariat. I'm saying there is PLENTY of info to make the argument that he is as good or better than Secretariat. Right away, when someone compares a 10F race vs the best 3, 4 and 5 year olds in the world to 12F race of US bred 3-year olds, lol...I immediately know they are a casual fan that knows zero about horse racing.
😂
Flightline cant be considered one of greats if he only ran 6 races. In the ole days horses ran 20+ races.
horse looked half a sleep and still won lol
those other jockeys did'nt ride their horses worth a damn... those horses are better than that . although life is good jockey stretched it out a little early i personally think life is good will beat this horse at a mile 1/16🌐
What? LOL. That makes zero sense. Tell us why you think he'd win at 1 1/16th.
LOL. Do you know anything about horse racing? Tell us why you think he'd win at 1 1/16. Go. (This is gonna be good). 🤣
Donkeys run on dirt.
Be respectful to the sport and run him on turf.
I concur but too late
Greedy owners retired him already
I'm not denying the horse is very good, but really the hype is well over the top. The US pool of horses this year has been abysmal. Even the Breeders Cup was a weak affair. Epicentre retired and Life is good didn't get the distance. You only have to look at the turf. Europe send a set of 2nd stringers and wipe the floor. Come on guys, get real.
Beat nothing in an average time
LOL. So says the guy who knows zero about horse racing. Well, either that or a troll.
Flightline is unreal ,so he goes 7 -0 great ,now we don't get to watch him run know more, Horse Racing sucks.Whats the point let him run 13 14 races ,7 wins u can put him in the top ten.
Good horse but never the best there's ever been!! Never really been tested. Retired after 6 races?? That's a joke! Cashing in on stud fees before he's found out. Frankel. Nijinsky, Sea the Stars, even Baaeed were better and showed more versatility!!
It’s disappointing for racing that Flightline has been retired. I’d loved to have seen him return next year to run in the Dubai World Cup & perhaps go for the Classic again. I think he’s a freak, but money talks & they said after this race that he’ll possibly make $40 million dollars in his first year alone as a stallion.
He just got retired
He just got rerired
"best in the world"? The same old American ostriches racing one another every month
Gtfo with your Euro crap.
This thoroughbred annoncer is by far the worst thoroughbred annoncer in the history of thoroughbred racing annoncers. End of story.
When life is good rider whip him when flightline overtakes 🥲
