Sweet Kiss of Death

in #sports6 years ago

08211937-2-750x612.jpg. In 1923, jockey Frank Hayes won a race at Belmont Park in New York despite being dead — he suffered a heart attack mid-race, but his body stayed in the saddle until his horse crossed the line for a 20–1 outsider victory.
The mare he rode was named sweet kiss and never raced again. But after that race her name became sweet kiss of death.
