I'm fairly certain I remember reading about a win mutuel over $600 at a Cali track (maybe Santa Anita) a LONG time ago.

Well I'll be... the timing was uncanny I guess. Thanks! That would have been one heck of a double, if they existed in 1912.

Actually, the highest payoff was significantly higher than Wishing Ring.

The record would be the $2,922 payoff on Power to Geaux at Aksarben on Dec. 8, 1989.
