Racing TV published this video item, entitled “THE IRON HORSE Giant’s Causeway and 53-year-old George Duffield deny Kalanisi in the 2000 Eclipse” – below is their description.
Unforgettable – what a finish to a famous renewal of a great race, as Kalanisi heads Giant’s Causeway only to be reeled back in by the brave winner and the substitute jockey, standing in for the injured Mick Kinane.
For all the world it looked as though Pat Eddery was booked for a fourth win in the race as four-year-old Kalanisi went past, but George Duffield, an unlikely but inspired booking for the Ballydoyle-trained winner, a year younger than his rival, knew all hope wasn’t lost.
He galvanised Giant’s Causeway who put his head down and snatched the prize back 50 yards from the post.
