Another One For The Judge

1986 Gr1 SA 2000 thriller

Potomac (Felix Coetzee) gets up on the inside to pip Model Man (Basil Marcus) after a ding dong duel

The ding dong tussle between Potomac (Felix Coetzee) and Model Man (Basil Marcus) in the Gr1 SA 2000 at Greyville on 7 June 1986 ranks as one of the great finishes of the 20th century.

It was Potomac’s last start of the season after a viral infection led to his withdrawal from the Oceanair Derby and the Durban July.

He was crowned champion 3yo colt of SA.

Thanks to poster Seattle Slow for requesting we publish the clip.

Enjoy it.
