Oh my goodness Horse cents, it’s a wonder quapi has not excommunicated ya!!
A lifelong horse racing fan and his wife were killed in an auto accident. When the two made it to heaven, St. Peter said, "Welcome to heaven. Good to have you here. I think you'll be pleased with the racing here."
Horse Player: "You've got racing here?"
St. Peter: "You bet. Just name your track—Flemington, Caulfield, Churchill Downs, Eagle Farm, Sandown, Randwick, Rosehill, Canterbury, Saratoga, Warwick Farm, Ascot, Longchamps any of them and there's more. Just tell the ticket-taker which track you want, you'll be there."
Horse Player: "What are the track conditions like?"
St. Peter: "What do you want them to be? Fast, slow, good whatever. Just tell the ticket-taker."
Horse Player: "Well, what horses are running?"
St. Peter: (by this time getting exasperated) "Today's card: the fourth race is our all-Comers special: Sunline, Phar Lap, Kingston Town, Northerly, Carbine, Light Fingers, Grandera, Super Impose, Tobin Bronze, Luskin Star, Sky High, Todman, Octagonal & Tullock.
The ninth race: The all-ladies Stakes: Wenona Girl, Storm Queen, Ethereal, Lets Elope, Leilani, Mannerism, Empire Rose, Jezabeel, Hi Jinx, Tristarc & How Now.
We've got our favourite race, The Big Cup: Man O'War, Even Stevens, Secretariat, Windbag, Peter Pan, Might & Power, Kiwi, Galilee, Rogan Josh, Rising Fast, Think Big, Hyperno, Gala Supreme, Gatum Gatum &
Saintly, We only run that one once every two weeks.
Next week--the Triple Crown Stakes: Paris Lane, El Gordo, Mighty Kingdom, Ming Dynasty, Gay Icarus, Big Philou, Bunratty Castle, Sydeston, Red Craze and Summer Fair. That's every 2 weeks, too."
Horse Player: "What type of bets can I make?"
St. Peter: "Where ARE you? What do you want: longshots, daily double, exacta, trifecta, quinella, all up, you name it. Just tell the cashier when you bet. And you win every time!"
The horse player looks at his wife and says: "If it wasn't for you and your
#$%*&@ low cholesterol diet , I'd have been here 5 years earlier!!"
