"I think there is something in the song about "somebody bet on the grey," but in my case, I bet two dollars on Giacomo in honor of my late grandma, who would only bet on the gray horse. She swore by this method of handicapping. It paid off for me today :-)"
Are you serious? If this is actually true, I will buy you something valued at $10 on ebay to pay *homage* to you. Or maybe you should buy me something!
I think most people bet on the greys because they're the easiest to spot in the pack ;~D
