The Cup.. It Calls To Me...

There's a Horse running tomorrow that everybody just loves except for me, cos I lost $20 betting against it last time. vengance shall soon be mine, as visions of payouts beyond hope dance before me, the thrill of previous wins charge through me as I build the scenario up. there's me, dashing out of class towards the race, much like the two I pick. worry as the early runners spurt forth, only to be swept away as my horses dash forward to take the lead, bursting past the line.

It's a really hard thing to do, betting against the hype horse, but I'm pretty sure I'm right in doing it. I should've paid more attention when I was working at a TAB... what i tried out was picking $5 worth of bets a day (not that I bet them), and then seeing if they paid out. I was doing pretty good for a while, but then I lost interest. sigh. I'm not even sure I was doing good, I just think I did. it meant buying the daily telegraph, that's why I gave it up. only good thing in that paper's the form.

good luck to everyone tomorrow, at least everyone who's betting on the same horses as me in the same order! posted by Keegan at 6:59 pm
