I've said it before...


I will state, flatly, for the gazillionth time that there is no feeling like watching your selected 10-or-20 to one horse rallying to win  when you've got a significant wager waiting to be collected.  I am sure there are comparable joys, but not many of them. Such is the case with  Black Onyx in the seventh race at Gulftream, yesterday.

Beyond the required move, the horse was: Being ridden by one of the consistently leading jocks; Trained by a stellar conditioner--and sporting a credible backstory.   Onyx was making it's first start on turf--after attempting to do so unsuccessfully twice.  The uninformed crowd was destined to avoid the horse like the plague. 'Move players knew As the touts say ' confidence was high."
