1999 Kentucky Derby - Charismatic : Full ABC Broadcast

Charismatic, a 30-1 shot, captured the 125th Run for the Roses in a time of 2:03 1/5. The win gave trainer D. Wayne Lukas his third victory of the '90s and fourth overall. Charismatic, ridden by Chris Antley, held off Menifee, with Lukas' other starter, Cat Thief, third. Lukas, who was voted into the Hall of Fame on Tuesday, won the Derby in 1996 with Grindstone, in 1995 with Thunder Gulch and in 1988 with the filly Winning Colors. The win before the second-largest crowd in the race's history was merely unbelievable to owners Bob and Beverly Lewis. Shocking is what it was to many in the crowd of 151,051 as Charismatic paid a winning mutuel $64.60, third-largest in Derby history behind $184.90 by Donerail in 1913 and $72.40 for Gallahadion in 1940. Trainer Bob Baffert failed to become the first person to win three straight Derbys. His three horses ran out of the money -- Prime Timber was fourth, the filly Excellent Meeting fifth and the gelding General Challenge 11th in a field of 19 3-year-olds. It was a case of lucky 16 for Lukas. Charismatic was only the second Derby winner since 1990 to break from the No. 16 post; the first was the Lukas-trained Thunder Gulch in 1995. The entry of Excellent Meeting and General Meeting was the 9-2 favorite, meaning no betting choice has won since Spectacular Bid in 1979. Charismatic was eighth in the run down the backstretch and moved to fifth entering the final turn. By the time he was exiting the turn, he was third and driving. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/more...
