Your friend scored a giant hit and he should be congratulated. I read Hovdey's story on Moss and Sherrifs in Friday's DRF and it got me to looking further. Then early Friday morning I saw Mike Smith on Barf at Churchill on the 'Deuce and he was giving Quint Kessnick a video walkthough of the SA Derby. Smith said it right then..."He took a while to get going and he was moving well at the end of the race. Then came the gallop out. He really galloped out strongly and I am really looking forward to a longer race with a long stretch,"
It was then that I tabbed him for 2nd and 3rd potential and when it came time to place my advance bets last night at Baze Meadows, I wussed out and played him only in 3rd.
I still can't get over the race. I wasn;t really close so it doesn't hurt nearly as bad as being photo'd out of thousands, perhaps millions!
The Super Pool was 8 mill so at least 4 people hit it. I bet one was Richard Branson. He and Moss are tight and Branson was rooting for Giacomo. He's a billionaire too so a super wheel is affordable to a guy like that.
After looking back at my bets, I had $100 across on AA so I got back gas money on the 4.60 show dough
