Ever hear of the horse called “Man o’ War”?He was the most dominant race horse in history. Back in the early 1900’s he won an incredible 20 out of 21 races. He set 3 world records, 2 American records and 3 track records. But you know what the name of horse was that beat him?
Upset.
Back in the day it just meant “to be sad”. But when Upset won that day it started meaning something else….
Pulling an “upset”
Which would be referring to the horse, but soon became commonly known to mean whenever an underdog beat a massive fan favorite.
And that’s this week’s FFF!

I trained one of Man o' wars descendants. It was amazing to ride her, let alone be the first to ride her.
My horse was a Man 0 War great.....grandson. It was totally sweet.
