Don't Overlook the Obvious
The fans made one horse the prohibitive 7/5 favorite, but I wasn’t sold; the horse did have a route specialist aboard and had English breeding in her favor, but she was hardly a monster–she’d finished third in her last out and shown only so-so speed. Another horse in the field was going at 12-1. This horse had never turfed, but she had won a couple races in a row and had speed figures that were consist ntly better than the rest of the field.Though there was a risk she wouldn’t take to the lawn, if she showed anything like her dirt form there was no question she would prove muchthe best. Well, she did, she was, and I still have some money in my pocket today thanks to her and her connections. I bet on the fastest horse entered in a race to win it, and she did; how simple was that?I’m going to try and keep that in mind going into the first big weekend of NFL football.

We don't choose to do this, we don't intend to do this, it just happens, as if we have no say about who we are and how we live our lives. But you do have a say about who you become and how you live your life.Because we wake up in the morning and we're alive i.e. were breathing, we can see and hear, we believe that we are present. |
