Timely Writer in the hopeful. Big score for a youngster.

The one that comes to mind first is Woodmans Luck, off the pace winner in the final at Hollywood Park. Capped a nice Pick 4 but it was, from what I remember, the first time I had a sincere emotional reaction to a horse race.

Lieutenant's Lark, a horse i groomed for Howie Tesher winning the 86 Washington DC Int at 35-1. Bet $200 w/p and had a $30 exacta with Dance of Life paying $400 and some change.
Itsallgreektome 30-1 first time out on the grass in the 90 Spotlight Hncp at HP. It was Derby Day and a million in the pick 6 that day. I ended up with 5 -6 but nobody had 6, so the 5's paid 5k. Had 3 horses on the race i missed. Also he was the back end of the pick 3 which i had a few times. Cleared about 20k for the day..

Like Indian Charlie, Thirty Slews in BC Sprint way back when. Got like 35-1 on him in Chicago track pools and had him with Meafara (I think), the fast filly. My friends stared at me like the old EF Hutton commercials when I cashed 5 figures.
Also, Big Drama with Hamazing Destiny in BC Sprint during the Blame/Zenyatta BC. Hit exacta/tri/super for best score ever.
Great to redboard and remember the good ones!

Cost him a race at Del Mar, I think the photo at Hollywood shows WL biting at the runner-up in that final, I will have to watch the replay again to check for sure.....
