1987 Breeders' Cup Turf

Theatrical comes in ahead of Trempolino to take the 1987 Breeders' Cup Turf.

Just remember how awful Theatrical was when running in England Shows you what a bit dodgy stuff can do. The greatest horse in my mind Dancing brave Should have had a sniff of something in 1986

[@roundtable3501]

Lol, the “dodgy stuff” was just American training and jockeys. Theatrical under European training and hockey didn’t do crap in the 1985 breeders cup turf. But when mott picked him up in 87’ he dominated. And dancing brave the greatest? I think Manila would have something different to say lol.

@@roundtable3501 Manila not in the same class as Dancing brave On level conditions it would be Pegasus vs a mule

The Yankees weren't booing any horse they were watching the Yankee horse with the Breeders cup Turf with the amazing Yankee horse Theatrical. 🐎 Why is that sore loser Frenchman so sore about the Americans. Are the french jealous because they don't have a horse like Theatrical???????????? Well they have Madamosel

We don't lose. But I do remember having to come across the Atlantic Ocean to have to save some country named France from the German occupation. Actually we had to save all of Europe from German occupation. But who is counting????

Pat Day, Pat Eddery, Cash Asmussen, Magnifique course.

I backed Theatrical, back then the European Horses barely got a Look in, but Trempolino did run a Fine race after His arc de triomphe win tho

[@theLowestPointInMyLife]

Theatrical was a European horse
