This was early in my OTB "career" This guy notices that I am always trying to get some huge longshot home. He mentions this horse running at Delaware that used to run at Calder. Looked awful. Said, he was a horse to watch according the DRF. I put $10 bucks on him to win and show. Horse goes off 80-1 waited for the rail to open up on the turn, shot through and left 'em like they were standing still.

The sad thing was he only included the horse int he double and the horse that was supposed to be a lock in the 2nd - ran 2nd. He didn't get a dime.

Same day later I tried to return the favor. Pointed out a horse that was working bullets. He was 25-1. I tell him and the horse goes off at 15-1.
Always wondered if I told the wrong guy

We've been friends ever since.
