Everyone is talking about the announcer somehow not seeing Mind That Bird, but what about that horse. Halfway through the final turn he found a passing gear. He was leaving the rest of the horses by strides and strides I thought it looked almost magical. Then near the finish he pointed back to someone just to rub their nose in his dust(slop). Just a stellar horse performance!!

Bob Knapp The fact that the video clips off that horse for so long, and even more so that his late explosion so confounds the announcer that he's too confused to even acknowledge his presence after he'd taken a good lead, just adds to the surreal intensity. It's as if he couldn't bring himself to acknowledge it because it wasn't even based in reality.

The track announcer, now back in the UK, saw the move but was hesitant to focus too much on it because he thought he might be wrong...but he did see him before he burst to the lead....That call is somewhere around here on YT, and an interview with the announcer. You can tell by the crowd noise that everyone was totally confused! Instead of loud cheering, it's like people are looking at each other and wondering what just happened....

One of the greatest upset races of all time and an announcer that missed the call. If you haven’t seen the multiple moves this jock and horse make you can’t truly appreciate the race. It’s insane. One of my favorite races I’ve ever watched live and I missed it too because I was listening to the play call. Watching it live I caught the winner after the last corner and didn’t see when he let the horse go halfway between the 3rd & 4th corner. He dropped the hammer and it’s really a spectacle.

Worst Kentucky Derby race call in history. Durkin did not see MTB in the first run through then corrected himself when he realized that MTB was trailing well back of the last horse. Then he never picked up the monster move up the rails and never saw MTB taking the lead and drawing off in the stretch. He only called MTB in front after the eight pole. Truly butchered the call.

SHORT IN STATURE - A GIANT IN WILL Forget that the announcer can not isolate MTB. Neither did anybody else including the camera man or any other commenter including Gary Stevens. Coming around the turn he is LAST. A blur. After the blur, he is literally running diagonally and weaving to the rail while in the stretch every other horse is running straight with forward momentum. Wins by 10 lengths. Watch closely @ 300 yard when COCKY CALVIN 1:58 TURNS HIS BODY SIDEWAYS TO THE BLEACHER AND WHIPS THE DOUBTING CROWD. LITERALLY HE " GAVE THEM THE BIRD ".

Some racehorses are staying in a stable. One of them starts to boast about his track record. “In the last 15 races, I’ve won eight of them!” Another horse breaks in: “Well in the last 27 races, I’ve won 19!” “Oh that’s good, but in the last 36 races, I’ve won 28!” says another. At this point, the horses notice a greyhound, who has been sitting there listening. “I don’t mean to boast,” says the greyhound, “but in my last 90 races, I’ve won 88 of them!” The horses are clearly amazed. “Wow!” says one, after a hushed silence. “A talking dog!”

It's good to remember that the announcer is Human...and his call was honest. I didn't see mind that bird until after I realized he won and replayed this video multiple times to see where he started to come up. Great call....we were all surprised!!

I start my day off with Mine That Bird and Duxbury (female greyhound). After I feed my greyhounds, I grab a Bai and head to the office, first I watch Mine That Bird and then Duxbury. I never get tired of watching Bird explode to take the lead and win the derby. Duxbury won the He's My Man Classic and all the qualification races leading up to the final. The announcer said " It was over early folks, this is one phenominal greyhound." As much as I love my greyhounds, Mine That Bird will always be #1 in my heart.

He says, “Last of them all is Mister Hot Stuff.” Then corrects himself because he realizes Mine That Bird is about 30 lengths back.... as Borel is guiding Mine That Bird up the Rail... the announcer is shocked it’s Mine that Bird... he was literally 30 lengths back.... it would of been nice for the announcer to acknowledge just HOW FAR BACK Mine that Bird was..... but he BLEW IT!
