if howard wins i clean up the bookies 1000

I couldn't resist the odds on Howard. I have climbed in at $3.20 and $4.15.

Even though I hate the guy I don't let an opportunity in a two horse race pass me by.

Even though I will be shattered if howard and his cronnies get back in I will win $1000 to drown my sorrows and buy some Christmas presents and perhaps get that one way ticket back to NZ.

I call it the lose/win scenario.
