It had to be in the early 70's when I first heard about the Honk For Donk legend.
We were leaving Aqueduct after the last race & approaching the parking lot & we hear all these cars honking their horns. So we're thinking "Ah, must be an accident" but the honking continued. We stopped a guy & asked what was up with all the honking. He said "Honk For Donk dude." He goes on to explain that Trainer David Donk wins a high% of the last race for the day. So, you gotta play him & I have been since that 70's day.
I would tell others about the legend but they all said it was a myth. The WPS/ex wheel that I usually play on any of Donk's horses in the last race have lost about at least 9 times in a row. But not today my Covers brothers & sisters. BECAUSE TODAY..
AQUEDUCT RACE 9 WINNER #5 FRANKIE LEW RIDDEN BY JOSE GOMEZ AND TRAINED BY DAVID DONK PAID $19/$12/$5.50; EXACTA 5-9 $94.60
I'm posting this here because no one would ever know about the Honk For Donk legend except for a few regulars in the horse forum. I've shared this legend with them in the path & just when it was starting to look like a myth, it was proven to be legend once again.
