Irish Luck and Missed Bets at Barrington Races
Eddie Carroll backed Pat 2nd to win the Jack McGrath Special at Barrington last Friday earning $27.40 on a $2 bet. Jack McGrath failed to back a winner in his own race after being told about Pat 2nd. The Barans entered Pat 2nd and planned to win big, but McGrath forgot the tip. The piece also references Hank Greenberg and a Bogart-signed fight coverage.
