John Banrock - Race 7 (The Superfecta)

Race 7: The Superfecta

Coming off a victory, ready to win more, we opted to sit down and dig into the form. I took us to the seats dad and I once claimed. I sat there with my son and we dove into the game. Dad was of the mind exotics were the way when the higher takeout made others stay away. In honor of my dad we came up with a plan to hit a superfecta and reach the promised land. Our ticket read 1,9 with 1,4,9 with 1,2,4,5,9 with 1,2,3,4,5,9.

We were feeling pretty good I’m not ashamed to say. I thought it was the race that would really make our day. I’ve always been a dreamer, guess it’s in my blood. And always think I’ll fare like the horse that goes to stud.

When you know you’re gonna win you always tend to lose. We got busted in the super by the filly Hide the Booze. We were mighty close but that don’t pay the bills. Our ROI sucked but at least we got some thrills.
