Just watched the Arc and no doubt about it the Race Call was THE WORST IN HISTORY.
Granted in Euro style racing with bunched fields, burst home finishes and courses that start somewhere behind the iron curtain things are little tougher to follow. But when after listening to the call one comes away with the feeling the Race Caller was barking away in between chugs of his lager there really is no excuse. Seriously this was a total disgrace.
The hand ridden winner Hurricane Run received a call as being next to last and then received another call being declared the winner. Say what? What happened in between? Hard to tell with an mug-in-your-mouth.
Tabor and Co. are not afraid to take a chance and may bring this horse over for the WTC. Fabre who has won several WTC races, with Banks Hill the last time things were at Belmont knows the ropes in America. Should Hurricane Run come it would add a large amount of Int'l flavor to WTC Day.
Just leave the Race Caller back there in the Pub.
