Andy Serling Shows His Class

[TouchOfGrey]

I have a friend who was running the in annual 5k over at Belmont during Stakes week. We met up at the track in time for the last race that day, and my friend, who had never been to the track before, was keen to place his first bet. I'm not a handicapper by any stretch of the imagination, so when he asked who he should bet on, I told him I saw tweet from Andy Serling that said he wasn't going to try and beat the 7 horse in the finale.

The 7 won. My friend was thrilled to cash a ticket, even if it was a small one, on his first bet ever.

Thanks, Andy.

ETA - And now, just this last Saturday, this friend was arguing with me on who would win the Travers.
