The Sport of Kings: 2

It takes about 25-30 minutes between races.   I suppose it is sufficient time to get the next horses ready and give people time to read the racing sheet.  It is actually quite fascinating in terms of the statistics that are kept.

Well, the race was over in about 60 seconds.


In this particular race, I want to point out that I picked two horses to win.  Yes, you can do that.....Neither did.   But, they did come in second and third.  And, the second place finisher lost by just a neck.  I have no idea what that is, either.

But, I lost.  And, I lost big.


Maybe I will actually study the racing thingamajig the next time.
