1996 Meadowlands Cup [02:08]
Dramatic Gold won a narrow stretch duel tonight to capture the $750000 Buick Meadowlands Cup, the richest thoroughbred race ever held in New Jersey. Ridden by Kent Desormeaux, Dramatic Gold held off Formal Gold by three-quarters of a length. The 5-year-old covered the mile and an eighth in 1 minute 48 seconds and paid $12.20 for a $2 bet in winning his third race in eight starts this year. Geri, the even-money favorite, finished next to last in the field of 11, his first finish out of the money this year. Mt. Sassafras was third. Gulf Reckoning, who was a perfect 4 for 4 on the Meadowlands main track, led the field through the first three-quarters of a mile. He tired to run fourth and was followed by Eltish, Run Softly, Devil's Honor, November Sunset, Victory Speech, Geri and Stephanotis.

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. The top three once more delivered a formful race, outrunning the leading outsider, Touch Gold, who did not appear in the Derby and who stumbled badly at the start of the Preakness. He closed to finish fourth, within 1 1/4 lengths of the three front-runners flying at the head of the field of 10. 'And we're going for the Triple Crown,'' shouted Bob Lewis, the California beer distributor who owns Silver Charm with his wife, Beverly. ''We need this badly in thoroughbred racing. May the best horse win at Belmont Park.'' Silver Charm is the first horse to have a chance at the Triple Crown in the Belmont since 1989, when Sunday Silence lost the Belmont to Easy Goer, whom he had outrun in the Derby and the Preakness. Bob Baffert, the white-haired, blithe spirit of racing who trains Silver Charm, has waited ...
