It was Criminal Type in the 1990 Hollywood Gold Cup. I was 7 years old and my father made a $2 win bet for me. He beat Sunday Silence by a nose that day and was the 5-2 second choice.

I was 6-7years old at Evangeline Downs and there was a quarter horse named Scooby Doo running and I jumped up and down, held my breath and threw a fit till my dad went and put $5/win just to shut me up, and he won at 26/1!!!! From that day my dad let everyone know I was a chip off the old block.hehe
