Another friend and I bet $150 across the board just for a kibbitz, I think we won something like $130...fanduel or whatever, he has an account.
We'll toss in a couple more bucks and go for a nice dinner with the wives.
Woulda won more if the horse had a nose like Jimmy Durante...
If he would have had a nose like Jimmy D, he wouldn't have been able to walk, let alone run the derby.
Friend of mine and I give each other a $2 free bet against either.
I had Honor Marie to Show (7th).
Buddy picked a show horse as well- Mystik Dan.
Drat!
