Clue/Question: To cash in his winning Belmont Stakes “trifecta” ticket, he’d need to – – –

Answer: HOLD HIS HORSES
(Both of my parents used to say this all the time! “Hold your horses!” It’s a super expression. Much better than “Cool your jets” or “Where’s the fire?” Once again, I did not have time to place a bet. I always love a grey horse, so I guess I’m rooting for Tacitus. Great bloodline and he’s got to be better rested than War of Will. I also like Master Fencer and Sir Winston. But what do I know?
“Shirk” is coming up as a new word, but it sounds awfully familiar! I guess ralis95 will have to add it to his world famous clue word database. Both “wherds” and “dolnoe” are jumbles that we’ve seen before. The answer letter layout is a great thirteen letter jumble. No give away.
Great cartoon of a cashier’s window at a racetrack. The guys look kind of stereotypical, but I don’t take offense. I know I don’t look like that when I go to the track. All in good fun. Be well and do well, friends.) — YUR
