1988 San Bernardino H. -- Alysheba Ferdinand GoodTaste

[@makingthecoin3647]

I loved Alysheba the son of Alydar and I prayed for the gallant champion Ferdinand he was loved by many and the hell with the people who had him and the way he was killed. Those Pigs. Remember these gallant champions in our hearts forever .

When horse racing was fun to watch. This days we don’t get to see two Kentucky Derby winners race each other’s at all. Thanks for this video

[@herbgarcia3580]

I'd give anything to go back to these days.....every weekend was just fun to watch and to be there if you were lucky. It was my Disneyland for sure.

R.I.P. Harvey Pack, one of the greatest television personalities in the history of thoroughbred racing

I flew from Argentina with Good Taste and 2 others ,my wife bought a share in him. You can imagine what a thrill it was to run so closely to two fantastic horses.

[@chrisp.9172]

Some great horses bred in Argentina! Including Blue Stripe recently..

[@paulc7742]

What a race. Alysheba my favorite of all time!!!

R. I. P. John Charles Van Berg (June 7, 1936, Columbus, Nebraska - December 27, 2017) In 1976, he sent a record for most wins in a year, with 496 ans was also the United States Champion Trainer by earnings ($ 2,976,196,00) Van Berg considered Alysheba (March 3, 1984 - March 27, 2009) the best racehorse he ever trained. God bless him! Regards from Venezuela.

What a twosome, Alysheba and Ferdinand. No matter who jumped out in the lead, the other caught up and made it a race. One of the great rivalries.

[@chrisp.9172]

This, along with Sunday Silence and Easy Goers Preakness, were the 2 best horses races I've ever seen! Along with the 87' Classic, because passing the 1/8 pole, Candi's Gold, Judge Angleucci, and Ferdinand all had the lead. Pincay at the rail, Eddie D., Shoemaker, and Chris McCarron on the outside! The 4 greatest Jockey's IMO..♥️🙏👉🇺🇸

[@brimargaret6513]

Alysheba a True Champion and my Heart!! Ferdinand a worthy adversary... what the people who owned Ferdinand in his post racing career is Absolutely Disgracefull!! R.I.P. Champs

[@KKBundy12345]

You are right Bri as they say in Japan "disposed of".

[@cthegiantkiller]

That was sad ending for a champion. Shoemaker said he would have taken to his farm if he knew that was going to happen.

[@eajinabi]

Shoemaker was a great jockey. He knew he had to stick it to Alysheba early otherwise he would have to play catch up late. Alysheba was a beast

[@christinematton4125]

Poor Ferdinand completely forgotten and discarded like trash. May those involved in has murder burn in hell !!

[@jamesdio2948]

Alysheba is the greatest ever and Trevor Denman was to.

[@YouDontKnow-that]

My god....Good Taste was pulling on the jockey the entire race. Thought he was absolute toast when he got passed...but wow.... game as could be.

0:13 just as it was on breeders cup day 1987 on NBC

[@richd3044]

Wow, did Ferdinand have a lot of close calls. Gutsy horse.

[@11SEXMACHINE]

He did nose out Sheena in the 87 breeders cup though. One of the best rivalries ever in horse racing.
