On various occasions we have sworn
of on parlays md on just as many Oc-
casfOns we have gone right back and
played the combinations. Two winners
on Wednesday did not do us any good.
Dudley was hooked up with a loser and,
although Midwestern won, we got ad-

Little Gypsy, part of the parlay, ran
third.

Cl0ister to win and place and the horse
was third Imagine Scratch and PoltOva
beating Cloister! The Overall and Ar

is only S123--the lowest ebb.

today or we will have to borrow money.
We refuse to weaken and will wager all
we have left. Two outstanding choices.

the tough battle In great style.
