Why the hell are they racing with training sulky's and not racing bikes ? Wherever this is also had wooden rails on the inside so there was no place to go if a horse goes offstride . Really idiots to build a track in such a way and race with training sulky's .

I'm privileged to know Mr Colin Calvert. He was my boss at the Ocean Beach Alliance Freezing Works in Bluff [1986-90] near the bottom south of the South Island here in New Zealand. Even then he was an absolute gentleman who treated you with you with the utmost of respect. While to others his success in the horse racing industry is a surprise, it isn't to me. Guts, courage, skill, and experience [against the odds] all define Colin and his wife Jean. Bee Bee Cee is the precise mirror of Colin - they reflect each other's traits and characteristics perfectly. As the other comment from perfectpikelet1444 made, it is a fabulous story, I'd even add it's an amazing story of beating the odds against all predictions.

Hello there. Not sure how current this channel is but I have just discovered it and it has brought back many memories. This 1982 Miracle Mile is up there with the best, even with with its inherent controversy. With no obvious means of contacting you I wanted to let you know I've used some "snippets" from some of your Harold Park posts in a new video I'll be loading called "The Old Red-Hots", an original composition about that paceway and some of my good times there. I'll acknowledge you in the closing credits. Cheers.

Perhaps the only positive to take from the shock loss by the greatest trotter ever in Australia and probably the world , is that it meant that the wonderful Lucky Creed still jointly retained that magnificent record of 24 straight wins together with Maori’s Idol - two truly marvellous Standardbreds .

Just so you are aware Wayne Wilson was the caller here. In the preamble they say Sporting Son was the local hope. Debatable, he was brought up from Melbourne for this campaign and although prepared by Kevin Thomas (a Queenslander) for the series I see Sporting Son as a Victorian horse.

Cocky Raider was famous for flying home at the very last moment and winning . I remember one night at the Melbourne Showgrounds, which was about the same set up as Harold Park , as the horses came into the straight the last time , famous racecaller Bill Collins ( known as The Accurate One ) said of Cocky Raider who was a long way back “ well , Cocky Raider can’t win tonight “ and you guessed it , he absolutely flew home and won . He had an amazing burst of speed at the end of his races .and was a great horse - as so many of them were in those days , and unfortunately a big percentage of them ended up in America .

Rex Hocking realised he had gone too slow in the 1972 Miracle Mile and gave Bay Foyle a chance to out sprint him in the last furlong. Hocking made amends next year and gave nothing else a chance after leading and using the horse’s natural brilliance. I got 9/2 about Reichman in 1973 and it never looked like a losing bet!

A huge run by the South Australian champion Gramel . From my knowledge both the Race Caller and Voice Over pronounced her name incorrectly- the word is basically split into two and pronounced “ Gra Mel “ but written as Gramel . On another note , who would have thought that one of the field would go on and produce arguably the greatest trotter in the world - Maori’s Idol , I doubt there will ever be a horse to take his crown , certainly here in Australia

Observations - poor drive by Kevin Robinson on Frosty Imp. Not a lead the field horse, had to have the trail. Had he waited in the death for a short period he would have had the trail on Pure Steel that he needed and the race could have turned out differently for both of them, with Steelo a big chance of winning this race from the death or Frosty Imp a chance from a trail with his whirlwind finish. Have to say the run of the race was Pure Steel.

2024 drivers have the audacity to just stop driving. Going to run 2nd don't count on it 4th now. Not to mention the usual. Break up at the start. Break up at the start break gear. Break up in the race. Go and stay on the fence. Favourite claim the death. Favourite claim the death and put pressure on 2nd favourite leading (there's a special on it at the moment). Favourite in the lead runs too faster rate then needed. And on and on Go on form, think like a crook, really think like a crook. You might not be thinking crooked enough.
