Pat O'Brian:
They're away! And Seabiscuit broke on top. He's ahead by a length. They're going by the stands the first time and Seabiscuit is ahead by a length. And they're racing about, neck and neck, going by the stands the first time, stride for stride. Ligaroti is second on the outside.

They're going into the quarter. Round the turn, stride for stride, an even race. A very even race. Ligaroti is now in front, on the outside by a head. It's Ligaroti still in front by a head. Ligaroti, in front.

They're entering the backstretch. It's still stride for stride, Ligoroti in front by a head. It's a beautiful race, folks, a beautiful race. Head and head they're going into the half-mile post now, and they're still racing head for head with Ligaroti in front by a neck. Seabiscuit is creeping up a little bit, but Ligaroti is still in front by a head. And Seabiscuit is on the rail, but Ligaroti is still in front by a neck.

They're going into the far turn now, Seabiscuit has now taken the lead by a head. Ligaroti is second ... Again they're head and head, what a beautiful race this is, folks. Now they're going around the turn, stride for stride and horse for horse. This is the most dramatic race folks, its been neck and neck and head and head and never a length apart. It's Ligaroti still in front on the outside, they're coming into the stretch and he's still in front.

And neck and neck, stride for stride, both jockeys going into a drive. Seabiscuit is going under the whip. Seabiscuit by a head. Ligaroti creeping up again. Stride for stride, it's going to be a driving finish. Coming down the line to finish. It's Ligaroti! Ligaroti. Biscuit by a head, folks! Biscuit by a head coming down the line to finish in the most dramatic horse race I've ever listened to in my life. The Biscuit.
