I cant link because im on mobile but under Gulfstreams FB page this person seemed pretty sure of things.......<quote>ticket was purchased at Favorites in Woodbridge, OTW and yes he singled out the 7 horse in the last leg. He was screaming for joy and security surrounded him to guard him and his winning ticket. To the best of my knowledge he is either the owner or part owner of the 7 horse and that is why he singled it. Congrats to Favorites, number 1 off track wagering facility in the USA.</quote>

DRF's Jersey-based Kenny Peck has it coming from Favorites too. In terms of ownership, the winner is one of the Horse Racing League teams' horses (Joe Orseno/Awesome Again). As kooky as the League idea sounded, the people involved seem to be having a lot of fun with it.

And if the story is accurate and the guy singled to the winner on his HRL team as reported, the $6,000 buy-in ends up a great investment.

Jerry.. The jackpot would have continued to build and the 2 winners would have split that day's bet-in handle. The #12 had 2 live tickets to it and had it won, the two would have rec'd $105k each..
