2007 Belmont Stakes- Rags to Riches [02:33]
Curlin's Belmont Stakes duel with Rags to Riches is race of the decade. No female horse has ever beaten the boys in this race and over 100 years. the song is called forces of destiny. I thought it would be perfect for the dramactic finish, Listen as the call of the race by Belmont Park track announcer Tom Durkin did much to capture the excitement of the scene.
