His reasons for betting Hotep ... "I like Woodbine horses and I really like the jockey."

It was a sight to see.

If I won that promotion ... I would try to get someone to load up a Betfair account for me and take a massive amount of liability against the horse I intended to bet ... which obviously would be one of the favorites in the race because they get the most liquidity.

The whole thing, from the guy with the bet to the call or miss call of the race seemed like a circus. Then to bury it on USA shows how this sport is really handled.
