I’ll tell you one thing the horses definitely do not know. They do not know that if you should accidentally trip and break your leg at any point during the race… We blow your brains out. I have a feeling they’re missing that little tidbit of information. I think if they knew that, you’d see some mighty careful stepping coming down that home stretch. “Take it easy… take it easy… watch your footing… You win, I’ll place… whatever. First or last, it’s the same bag of oats, boys… The important thing is your health.”
