I had a $100 win bet on him in the vernon o underwood by accident. I wanted to bet the #4 horse in the 9th race but I played the 8th race instead. By the time I got home I noticed I bet the wrong race and was very upset but the horse won at 52-1. The #4 horse did win the 9th race but he was only 5-1.

The malibu I had a $2 4 horse Exacta Box.

I have an even crazier story of winning the Magna Pick 5 on Feb 25th 2006 for 11.7k before Uncle Sam's 25%. Einstein would have to be my most sentimental favorite horse over debonair Joe.

Einstein is probably the first horse to win Grade 1 races on Dirt, Turf and Synthetic.

Did he win a Grade 1 on dirt?

That race still haunts me and can still vividly picture Go Deputy refusing to go by Einstein as they neared the wire. I had Go Deputy and some bad favorite covered on a slim $32 ticket.
