Remember it well. Was there. Didn\'t bet it. Though I know a few wise guys did, and collected an enormous triple. All the \'exacta charters\' knew there was something odd about the horse, but not how odd.
Omitted in that story is the detail that Lebon ran once at BEL before the winning race, and that serious money showed late in the exacta\'s that losing (up the track) day. Almost nothing to win though. Very odd.
If I remember, it was the sister, or wife, or someone , that knew about the ringer, who bet that first time. Was a no go.
Yeah, next time out, wired them on the turf. Larry Adams was a pisser.
