Promo for Kentucky Derby 115 (Easy Goer vs Sunday Silence)
🎨: @mitamory
Original poster which was for an off-track betting place in NYC. I like it a lot more than the official poster for Derby 115.
It seems a bit silly at first to change the poster to just Easy Goer and Sunday Silence but having watched just about every race of theirs from that season the commentary makes apparent that it was always the Sunday Silence and Easy Goer show. The BC Classic that year spends 5 minutes introducing all the other horses and then says something like “Can they beat the top two? Nah. Not a chance.”
Part of a fanfic a friend and I are working on based on the 89 US Triple Crown tour and more of the 1989 season for Easy Goer and Sunday Silence.
Obviously a lot of people have covered Sunday Silence and Easy Goer but there’s also just as many interpretations of the characters. I’m still waiting for the glamour portraits to be finished but given that the Derby is tomorrow figured I might as well post this now.
