Hey

I try to read up the old stuff before the Kentucky Derby every year and I am going thru the 55% Solution right now and saw this on page 68.

Dick Shmidt is talking about Howard picking a 90-1 horse to show and getting a $17 show payoff on a $2 bet and being proud of it.

His method was pretty simple according to Dick anyways, if there was one horse he was sure could beat a longshot, and maybe a second horse that might have been better, then the longshot should SHOW. Hard to argue with that logic, honestly.
