WHAT’S THE ODDS- The smart “hoss players” remain behind the stands to watch the early pre-race betting odds before placing their bets. This tote board is one of the most popular spots at beautiful Hialeah Race Track just outside Miami.
Miami, March 28, 1951
Bonjour!
(French)
Again with the French! The TOTE Board, or Taking Only The Easy. Talking Over Trash Exits. Trailers On The Effluent. Trans-Orbital Tank Engine. The Opposition Thanks Everyone.
Beautiful Hialeah Race Track is still around. Built in 1925, the race track has featured many famous thoroughbreds such as Seabiscuit and Citation, been visited by the likes of Frank Sinatra and John F. Kennedy, and was the setting for the movies The Champ and Let It Ride.
I'm not even going to begin to transcribe the French on the postcard. Anyone read French?
