The best part of being a clerk is that you don't need to bring money to the track to bet. And since I was in college at the time, money was scarce.
In the Fall 1996 meet at Keeneland, I bet $100 to win on Boston Harbor in whatever that BC Juvy prep was called back then. Of course I had no money to cover the bet if he lost, but after getting passed in mid-stretch by a horse whose name I don't remember, he re-rallied and won....at odds-on I think.
I almost had a heart attack.
Hey, I was 19. And I'm a child of divorce. I'm a victim.
