One of the Beyer associates wrote the analysis for DRF and didn't put Lil E Tee as a contender, even though he had the top Beyer (tied). I put Lil E Tee third and said that he was a live longshot, and I actually hit the exacta that year. Lil E Tee was 17-1 at the track but back then there were separate pools in many states and I believe that he paid 50-1 odds in New York. One of our readers (Racing Action) called me the next week and said that he was trying to figure out the Derby and he saw that my top figure horse was 50-1 at OTB and he bet $50 to win and $50 to place on him.
I remember seeing that Beyer for LET, and then seeing your column. I's STILL buying beers off that race!
