When I was knocking around Victoria I had a very heavy duty friend.
Well this particular day we were knocking off an amber or 2 in the local when i got up to put a bet on .This friend asked me what I was betting .I showed him and his rely "" no ya mug x horse is going to win this one.The jockeys wife is having their first baby and this is the jocks present to them""
Now this horse was something like 50/1 but now who am I to argue with such persuasive logic especially from THIS friend.
So on went the dough.This horse had a dream run openings everywhere .Just to make it interesting though they did give chase when it was all over.
A nice win on the day and my mate refused to take a penny for the tip.
I wish some of these other tipsters around were so generous.
Cheers.
