As a kid, i owned ponies, horses, eventually a casino. It’s best to own the games, not play them. Is this being taped?

Our money troubles are solved. On a tip, I put this year’s budget on ‘Because Madigan’ in the 6th.

You and the horse you rode in on…

Listen, when walking around the paddock, you gotta watch out for those horse apples. They’ll ruin a new pair of shoes faster than anything.

Why didn’t my staff pack me a seersucker suit for this auspicious occasion at the horse Downs.
Anybody want a mint julep?

Listen, when bettin’ on horses, you gotta consider the track. If it’s muddy, bet on a long shot. Da favorites usually don’na like it when it’s wet.
