The Gambler

Sanae was at it again, throwing bad money after worse. Today was the 59th running of the Arima Kinen (the Arima Memorial Stakes for all you monolinguals - shame on you), and Mammy snuck off down to the local Rice-Paddy Powers for a bit of 'an auld flutter'.
And true to form, she lost.
Sigh.
