1997 Preakness Stakes - Full Broadcast [01:08:08]
Silver Charm, who won the Kentucky Derby over Captain Bodgit by the length of his gray head, provided a smashing encore today when he won the 122d Preakness by the same head over Free House, with Captain Bodgit third by another head in a three-horse blanket finish. And he set the stage for the Belmont Stakes in three weeks, when he will be racing to become the first colt in 19 years to sweep the Triple Crown. The three rivals re-enacted their photo-finish performances of two weeks ago before 88594 spectators at Pimlico Race Course with a slight reshuffling of the order behind Silver Charm -- but with the same tingling drive to the wire -- in the closest Preakness in 65 years.

Charmayne James & Scamper - 97 Tucson, Az Rodeo [01:00]
Charmayne James & Scamper make a winning run at the 1997 La Fiesta De Los Vaqueros Rodeo in Tuscon, AZ. At this point, Scamper was semi-retired, yet could still win rodeos. I love the way he nudges Charmayne during the interview. Scamper was saying, "your stealing my spotlight."
