SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO...
In this morning's (Friday May 6) newspaper which must go unnamed, except to mention that it has a marvellous free supplement for the weekend racing, we find the following:
WINNING FORMULA.
The horse to bet on is Manawanui.
Stand it out in a trifecta.
There are five horses in the race (note that).
So you look below to the fields.
Ah there it is. Race One.
But hang on. The horse isn't tipped 1. Or 2. or 3. Or... wait for it... 4.
Of five horses, it's the ONLY one missing from the tips.
And in fourteen lines of comment, the horse isn't even mentioned, and you're told that one of the other four won't start anyway.
It happens....
