Only if it is a horse. The other meaning has bubbles with lots of rejection.

Horse racing is creepy, at best.

The headline got my hopes up. Journalism hardly ever wins in the era of King Dotard XIV.

journalism wing....any normal person knows it couldn't have been the group of lying punks who helped the democrats pull off the biggest presidential scandal in the history of the US. --unless.... ha ha...you're one of the total morons who actually believed....HA HA>..them when they called us liars for what we were seeing...BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA --like the time we were called liars while biden was falling / "stuttering" as the so called journalist were lecturing us and soiling his pants while wandering around the rose garden after talking to and trying to shakes hands of dead people...long time bead people. --A SEGMENT OF A PROFESSION NEVER TO BE BELIEVED AGAIN!!

AND the biggest lie from you and media..."He had a cold during the debate."...... BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
--but this race was classic. Handicapping 101. with early speed slowing in stretch for a sustained / closer is in first chapter of every book. When I saw 23 at the quarter mile then 46.3 and then 110.1 it was all over for the long shot early horse. GREAT EXACTA bet though but for journalism to be squeezed at the break and the bump in the stretch was magnificent run for the champ.
and not surprised of names making stupid comments. with this win journalism earned 2 or 3 humps a day for the rest of his productive life....( thoroughbreds can't be artificially inseminated ) --and earned it's owner somewhere in the neighborhood of 500K a "pop"...so remember that while you slitz are still out "begging for nickels."

I've only been to two horse races. The first was to quaint Del Mar racetrack, near San Diego, with a friend who was writing an article for Travel & Leisure magazine. We were on the infield next to the rail. The ground literally shook when they passed.
The second time was at Pimlico, outside D.C. My friend and I won a daily double and drove to a Trump casino in Atlantic City, where we turned those winnings ($60 in my case) into a considerable amount of cash we left with from Donald "6 times bankrupt" Trump.

del mar is a landmark....built by Bind Crosby with partners like desi arnaz and wc fields.
the two main ones in CA...del mar and santa anita are falling on tough times. hopefully the breeders cup ( world championship ) helped them out. Del Mar has been a fast track but when CA required synthetic tracks they all went to S....cause it screwed handicapping up for entries from dirt tracks. they have since changed that law. --cashed some sweet tickets from Del Mar especially from vegas book.

most of my handicapping is done the night / morning before so races I"m still thinking about I'll go to the paddock and watch them and how they look / sound and sweat.
then I'll move at 'riders up" to crosswalk and stick my nose out to smell each one....no seriously... LOL not for crap but trying to smell leniment or some external medicine...then to the gate...and yes you're right...the ground does shake....and it takes 5-10 seconds for the dirt they kick up to hit the ground.

I hit a 30 to 1 shot I bet on because he looked at me while moving from the paddock to the crossover. he looked at me / threw back his head and neighed .. wish I had more than a 2 dollar bet but 65 on a 2 dollar bet is a pretty good ROI
--so sometimes you bet like that /. sometimes you bet on the nag" and sometimes you go with the gray...

They play a song Bing Crosby recorded about Del Mar before races begin. What a charming and quaint racetrack.
How the F do you bankrupt casinos like Trump did multiple times?!! Only a bloviating moron could since they're practically money printing machines.

Did you know Lucy/Desi Arnez, Bob Hope, and Bing Crosby made the vast majority of their wealth by buying up the San Fernando Valley and developing it?

PS - Fred McMurray was also in on developing the San Fernando Valley.
