He planned to steal with these horses, who were all better than they looked on paper. The trick was to get in and get out fast. But how many actually did? How many winners were that sure?

This is the down-and-dirty world of claiming races, and everything is hazed with the gritty patina of desperation." Not inscribed, price clipped, remaindered or otherwise marked.
