Pleasant Home last years Distaff....raced against the bias at Keeneland in her last prep and had some back class...30-1 and saved me from a horrific day.

Mine would be throwing sprinter My Cousin Matt in my 2004 BC Sprint trifectas. Speighstown took it, followed by Kela and then My Cousin Matt clunked up for third at 62-1 or something wild like that. Threw him in solely because I liked his performance in person at Suffolk a few months earlier in the Moseley BC Sprint against Gators N Bears I think. Slightly lame angle, but the payout was $2800 for $2, only used a $20 tri key I think...

No Allegiance a couple of weeks ago at Belmont. I think it went off at 26-1. Spain at Churchill and Cat Thief in the Classic. |

I think that Seek Gold should be remembered... good heavens, he was the LAST horse I would have looked at to win the Stephen Foster.

Well, mine has to be Last Tycoon in the 86 BCM...this was before the wagering pools were combined and he paid over $180 at Penn. I tried to talk my buddy into putting a few bucks on him but he laughed in my face...I swear he turned green when the horse crossed the finish line!

OK, it was last year at Colonial and a 80-1 shot was catching the leader at the wire and he won...I swear he won....PHOTO sign goes up....waiting...waiting minutes seemed like hours and finally he's put up second.
NO WAY..I've got to see that photo...waiting...waiting...No Photo! W'll I called, e-mailed and they finally e-mailed me the photo and it's REALLT hard to see who won as there was a third horse in the mix but even looking at it MY HORSE WON. And I got ZIP.. BIG BUMMER ![]()

I also had "Broughshane" in an allowance race at Belmont Park the day before the Belmont Stakes in 2003. He was 20/1 and I had $60 to win on him. Not that huge of a hit but it felt kind of cool, he absolutely demolished the field.
He came back 2 1/2 months later to win again at Sartatoga at 7/1 and I had even more on him. Broughshane! |

The obvious ones I'll leave out.
Got Humoristic home last October at 29-1. Won for fun. Liked that one. A 10-1 winning gives me a good feeling. Doesn't have to be 40-1. Just a logical longshot. That's what the game is about. The best times are when the 40-1s are the most logical but that is rare. |

Randall, you need to start your own thread for all the longshots you have scored with and given out on here! Geez, BC Day last year alone.
