There's one standout moment for me - when Tempera won the BC Juvenile Fillies a few years back. She had been a monster in her first couple of starts, then had a bit of a tough trip in her 3rd to Habibti in the Del Mar Debutante. All of a sudden, she was not the buzz horse and no one really talked about her. Coming up the Juv Fillies, I thought she was very much an overlay at 10-1 or something like that; I thought the odds were ridiculous because, at her best, she was brilliant..something the other fillies were not. I would have been ecstatic at her victory without having laid a bet, but I wagered $5.00 and won a few bucks. It was sweet vindication..... of course, one of my worst/unhappiest horse racing experiences was her death the next year. Devastating
