Whether you are a horse racing fan or not, when a competitor faces 50-1 odds and actually wins, then it’s worth dropping your jaw in awe.
This is exactly what happened at the Kentucky Derby in 2009 when humble horse Mine that Bird decided to explode on the track to overcome a 19-horse field and finish at an unpredicted first place. It’s worthy to note that Mine that Bird never won another race again, making this even more of an underdog story.
