Biggest upset I have seen was Bays Fella winning the 1990 Breeders Crown aged pace at Pompano.

 Niatross diving over the rail at Saratoga back in the early 80s.

Art Official is the obvious choice considering the magnificence of SBSW but how about Sandbetweenmytoes beating TDS and paying 409.80 for the money man in the BC.

For me it was Whata Baron ( I think) with Lew Williams driving beating Keystone Ore at Northfield. If I remember right all the bridge jumpers were there and lost.
