This is still the best exacta I've hit in betting the Breeders Cup. Actually bought the ticket at Arlington Park then watched on TV. I love that commercial on ATR. Early in BC history, the Woodbine horses were virtually ignored. If I remember correctly, I loved Play The King because he had ran a 1:10.00 flat 6 furlongs in his prep race and by Woodbine standards back then anything under 1:12.00 was smoking. (long before poly was invented)
Great memories!!!! (although a little sketchy)
