The Race is On [02:07]
So, this is something I made real quick. Not my best work, but I was watching lots of old videos about the Triple Crown and came to love old horse racing. (I don't really think it's any different now, I just love the black and white and the people standing on the rail and all the old stars that went to go see the races like Bing Crosby, Lucille Ball and such.) I do not own these clips. All rights to respected owners.
