Couldn't happen to a nicer guy, Steinbrenner's horse chokes

I'm also pleased to see Joe Torre's nag choke as well.

Does Luis Sojo or Mel Stottlemyre have any horses I can root against?

How does this bettor's ex-wife feel now?

Chris Hertzog placed 100 $1 bets on Saturday's Kentucky Derby with Brenda Reagan at Turf Paradise. Hertzog thought he lost a ticket worth $864,253 for accurately predicting the Kentucky Derby's top four horses. "(Turf Paradise owner) Jerry Simms took me aside and asked me if I had the ticket, and I said no, that it'd been thrown away," Hertzog said. "So he took us down to the mechanical room and we started going through trash cans."
Then the woman who sold him the ticket called. She found it lying beside a register.

Herzog said his divorce was finalized last week.

I strongly suggest he diversify his new fortune...a little bit of T205, a little bit of Fan Craze, a little bit of N300, a little bit of Goudey...
