This horse always runs strong races, but he usually finishes 2nd or 3rd. Even if you don't usually place/show bet, this horse is BEGGING for across-the-board bets, especially when he is sent off at 10/1.

It wasn't a bet I made with my head, I am fully aware that Perfect Drift has a hard time getting to the winner's circle.
I had a bad day at the windows, and I just took what I had left and said "to hell with it, I'm betting this guy to win again."
I have bet him to win almost every time he has entered the gate. Never cashed a place or show bet on him, and never will.
Just one of those sentimental ones......it was only $40.00 and a double going into the last.
