One subject that we have missed on this board-- are to my knowledge only briefly touched on, are all the words and terms for gambling--we did touch a pair of words used in UK for a small bet-- but a professional gambler i know, (yes, it it a profession-- he is licenced!) spoke of all the expressions poker had brought into language--many are phrases-- but BYB, since you know a little something-- maybe you can enlighten us with horseracing terms that have moved into the main stream. (me, i don't gamble with money!)
