aficionados. “You insult the horse you’re
betting on now.”
When the race goes off, everything
moves in a state of hyper-reality. The fury
of the horses as they thunder around the
track in a plume of dust is matched by the
frenzy of the fans. Go! GO! GOOO! On
this particular day, a horse named Neuf de
Carreau wins the race at odds of 4– 1. It’s a
good outcome for the women, who high-five each other on their shared victory
with the horse.
Horse racing is the ultimate two-minute adrenaline rush. For people like
Tom Gilcoyne, who’s been returning to
the track for well over half a century, the
competition among the horses is the real
payoff. “Win or lose, they give it the best
they’ve got.”
