You must have forgotten Durkin's Classic call:

"Sunday Silence surges to the front...EASY GOER with one final accelleration.....AND AT THE WIRE...IT's SUNDAY SILENCE BY A desperate neck"

Race was a classic Goer split run. Easy broke inwardly from the rail (gimme a break i'm relying on memory) He had to pick his way through traffic and was WELL back on a track you don't do well on from far back. (Caveat: Dancing Spree won sprint from the ozone that day when blistering fractions were set. I think some horses died in that race. I know On the Line did later from his injuries. Something happened with a horse named Sam Who too.) Goer ran an unbelievable second or third quarter to get close and then Sunday Silence pulled away. Afterwards Day said "I was giving Goer a breather" Easy was running like a top fuel dragster at the end but came up just short. One jump past the wire he was five lengths in front...lol. I think Sunday was dead game but he should have lost that race. He was vulnerable at 10 marks. Prized and Criminal type proved that as well. Even when he won the Derby on a track Goer abhorred Sunday was staggering through the stretch like a drunken President or an Empire Maker in the Wood.

I think other winners that day were Rhythm, Go For Wand and Bayakoa. The latter two hooked up in the distaff in N.Y. the next year. They were head and head down the stretch and on the tote board. Nothing separated them but fate.
