I remember...
GETTING MY WHOLE FAMILY TO PUT A BET ON THIS HORSE AT THE ROYAL ASCOT, PRETENDING THAT I GOT A TIP BUT I WAS JUST FEELING LUCKY THAT DAY. I REMEMBER WATCHING THE BEGINNING OF THAT RACE AND SIR PERCY (THE HORSE) WAS ACTING UP AND WAS THE LAST ONE TO GET INTO HIS POSITION FOR THE RACE - I WAS THINKING "NO WAY, I PICKED A DUD". AND LOW AND BEHOLD, WHO COMES THROUGH AT 14 TO 1? IT WAS SIR PEEEEEEERRRRRRCCCCYYYYYY! PHEW THANK GOD FOR THAT!
It was the Epsom Derby and it was a glorious moment! Thanks for the money we won!
