Chapter 0513 - What a coincidence

Today was originally planned to take his wife out for a walk, but little Mary mentioned that she would go to the horse race, so she decided to take the place at the racecourse.

Santa Anita Park in Los Angeles is northeast of downtown, near Pasadena.

This is one of the most famous thoroughbred racecourses in Los Angeles and California, and before the New Year, the best jockeys and thoroughbred combinations from other countries compete in several high-profile races.

When I arrived at the racecourse, it was more than 9 o'clock, and I thought that there would not be many people at the scene, but I didn't expect the racecourse to be full of people, and the stands were full of people.

"Find a suitable place. Because the two were traveling together, and Lu Qiang was replaced by Lu Qiang, Li Zitao gave him an order, and walked to the fence with his wife.

"Look, number 4 is so fast, Lipizzama from Austria. Little Mary pointed to the inside of the fence and shouted excitedly as the number 4 jockey overtook him from the outside.

The Lipizzan horse, the most popular breed in the arena, has a beautiful and noble temperament, brave characteristics and a tame temperament, which equestrian enthusiasts call a combination of strength and grace.

"Little Mary, pay attention to your image. Mary walked over to the fence and said in a somewhat heavy tone.

"Yes, got it. Little Mary immediately put away her presumptuous smile, revealing a gentle and elegant temperament, which made Yanyan who was watching next to her pout disdainfully.

Whenever she was outside or in the presence of outsiders, Mary paid extra attention to her words and deeds, and never saw a gaffe in her.

Little Mary's face-changing game was fun, and Lu Qiang also found a suitable position, in the center stand.

"Sir, ma'am, the next game is about to start, do you need to place a bet?" As soon as he came to the stands and sat down, someone from the racecourse came to ask.

"Information on horse racing. Hearing his inquiry, he handed him a piece of paper with a record of each horse's origin, pedigree, details of the jockey, and honors received.

However, Li Zitao believed what he saw with his own eyes, stood up and looked at the direction of the horse fence, and soon found the target, and little Mary and his wife were still discussing which one to choose.

"Does Uncle have a goal?" Yan Yan asked him quietly, rolling his eyes smartly.

"Yes, number nine. He nodded and said to the staff, "Its odds?"

“1:3.6... Sir, it is the first time to participate in the competition, in terms of experience. "The staff seems to be trying to persuade first-time racers and jockeys to be nervous, which will affect the coordination of the two, and it is not from a famous racecourse.

"Really?" Li Zitao smiled and pulled out a check: "10,000 US dollars." ”

"Wow... Do you want to play so much?" little Mary immediately looked up and looked with interest at the number 9 he had chosen.

"It doesn't look good!" Seeing that the horse didn't look special at all, little Mary lowered her head and looked at it with interest, "I'll pick No. 2, uh... 1000 US dollars are ready, what about you, sister?"

"Yanyan, don't you choose?" Mary didn't answer, looking up at Huang Yanyan.

"No. 9, 500 US dollars. Yanyan said bluntly.

"I also choose No. 9, 5,000 US dollars. Mary smiled and handed the slip to the staff.

"Hey, hey, did you all discuss it, why did you all choose No. 9?" Seeing that everyone chose the same, Little Mary asked a little annoyed.

"I believe in Uncle. Yan Yan casually flicked her gaze and turned her gaze to the horse pen.

"Giggles, I trust my husband's vision. Mary pursed her lips and chuckled, making little Mary even more unhappy.

Where did the assertive, independent sister go, could it be that pregnancy made her lose her brain, so scared!

"It's time to start. Li Zitao stood up as he spoke, looking at the direction of the horse fence, this was his first time participating in horse racing, and it was quite interesting.

Syllable.

At the sound of the gunshot, the stall opened, the jockeys clamped their legs, and the horses burst out of the fence like a gale, galloping forward.

"Out of the gate, No. 3 took the lead, followed closely by... No. 9, it's No. 9, this is the first time it has been on the field, it's over, No. 9 is overtaking, oh it's like flying" The live commentary shouted out the hearts of the audience.

No. 9 showed amazing explosiveness as soon as he came out of the slaughter, jumped into second place in an instant, and then took the lead under the stunned eyes of countless people, and won the first place without any suspense.

There was an uproar at the scene, which was really unexpected.

At the same time, they remembered the jockey, and the unfamiliar horse farm that had appeared for the first time, and that some merchants were already playing with its idea.

There's no easier way to become famous than to win a race for a professional horse farm that trains racehorses.

"How is that possible?" Little Mary's eyes flickered, and she suddenly raised her head and said, "Sister, are you hiding something from me?"

Hearing her ask, the corners of Yanyan's mouth were the first to show a hint of pride, Mary covered her snicker, looked at her husband and said, "That's the horse race in our own racecourse." ”

Little Mary understood on the spot, and stared at Li Zitao with her hands on her hips.

"You didn't ask, and besides, I'm not sure if it will really win, what if it loses?" Li Zitao's explanation was insincere.

"I won't trust you anymore, don't try to dump me next time. "Little Mary looked away with her head raised proudly, with an expression of 'I'm angry, I can't coax it'.

Shaking his head with a smile, Li Zitao asked the jockey to come in and gave him a 'dividend' of 1,000 US dollars,' the jockey's eyes were so moved that he almost didn't cry.

"Good job. Li Zitao patted him on the shoulder and said.

The jockey and the horse were both from Texas, and they were sent after training at the Asa Ranch, and I believe that the little old man West had won a lot of the race just now.

However, he didn't come himself, only the person in charge of the racecourse followed, and after the other party came up to say hello in a restrained manner, Li Zitao asked them to go back first.

Wyster is still waiting for their good news, and the celebration banquet at the racecourse will not be without the young protagonist and the partner who brought him victory.

"Sir, this is your check..."In a few minutes, 10,000 yuan became 35,500 yuan, and the horse farm took 500 yuan in handling fees, which was terrible.

After handing the cheque to Mary and Yanyan respectively, only little Mary sat pitifully in place, empty-handed and fruitless.

"I don't care, you have to compensate me. Little Mary said with her head held up proudly, and snorted like a savage princess.

"Yes, my little princess, which one do you like?" jokingly bent down and bowed, and several people laughed and argued for a long time, and finally chose the one Li Zitao chose.

"I chose it casually, don't blame me if I lose. Li Zitao said and signed another six-figure check, and the staff wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.

This can't be like other female dependents, the next 1,800, always such a six-figure down, and they will become his 'part-time' again.
