Celebrity chef Flay announces horse race

Celebrity chef Bobby Flay traded pots and pans for a microphone to call a horse race at Saratoga on Sunday.

"And they're smokin' out of the gate!" Flay exclaimed as the horses broke in the eighth race, won by long shot Freddy The Cap, who paid $67 to win.

At the end of the race, track announcer Tom Durkin said, "Thank you, Bobby, and thank goodness you know how to cook a souffle."

Flay also signed copies of his book "Burgers, Fries and Shakes" at the track.

He first attended races at Belmont Park as a boy along with his grandfather. Flay has owned and raced horses in New York state for several years.
