Excerpt:
“Yesterday, HBO was doing a little behind the scenes promotion. They brought their actors out for a day at the races and gave each of them $100 to wager with. They bet on the second and third races, and Richie Coster hit both races.”
One bet was made on the Steve Knapp-trained Unusual Jazz, $8.20 winner of the second race. The other payoff came on the $21.20 exacta combination of Out of Bounds and Secret Circle in the third race, the Sham Stakes.
“Coster made over $1,000, and later, when they were doing interviews back at the barn, he said he didn’t feel right about taking the money, ‘because after all, HBO gave us the money to start with,’ and he asked if there was a worthy cause he could donate his winnings to, and he donated it to CARMA,” Chew continued.
