Horse racing oddity: horse running the wrong way [04:50]
Things became very scary at Louisiana Downs on September 4, 2011, when Secretfly unseated his rider at the start of the ninth race. Thankfully no horse or rider was hurt. The head-on replay follows at 2:40, and offers a much better look at what happened. Following a stewards inquiry, the race was declared a no contest and all wagers were refunded. Travis Stone is the announcer.

Tim Tetrick Calls A Race At The Meadowlands [02:13]
Harness racing's leading driver Tim Tetrick stepped out of the sulky and into the announcer's booth to call the first race on Thursday, July 14, 2011 at Meadowlands Racetrack. The 29-year-old reinsman faced the challenge of a nine-horse field. The race was won by Oasis Dream (No. 4) in a time of 1:57.3. "I called a few races at some small fairs," said Tetrick, who had long dreamt of getting on the mic at the sport's leading track. "My dad used to announce all the time and when he would have a horse to drive, I would announce that race. "I don't know how [Meadowlands announcer] Sam McKee does it," he added after the race. "This is hard!" Tetrick leads all drivers in North America for the fifth straight year with 407 wins and $6.7 million in earnings through July 14, 2011.
