Tommy was at the racetrack and by the third race he was down on his luck with only £5 left when he noticed a priest in the paddock kissing his hand and placing it on a horses head, he looked at the list of runners and the horse was a 10 to 1 outsider so he thought no chance, so he bet £3 on the second fav - but youve guessed it the 10/1 shot romped it, Tommy watched and sure enough the priest again went into the paddock for the 4th race and did the same to another horse, it was a 20/1 shot so Tommy put his last £2 on it and yes you guessed it it won giving him £40, he again witnessed the priest going into the paddock for the 5th race and the same thing happened he blessed an 8/1 shot and Tommy put £20 on it and it duly obliged Tommy was made up he had now over £180 with the last race still to come, so he raced over to the cash machine and withdrew all he had in the world another £100 giving him £280 to put on the last race if the priest was to re- appear -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- sure enough the priest went into the paddock and went over to a horse kissed it's ears kissed its head and tail & legs, tommy checked the betting and the horse was the rank outsider in the field 50/1 he couldnt wait, they were off and into the last furlong the horse was in the lead--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------then it keeled over and died,--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Tommy was understandably distraught so he rushed over to the priest and demanded to know what had happened as all the other horses he had blessed had won easily-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
