Description:
Five months ago, 25-year-old Ari Herbertson and his father, Scott, saw some potential in a horse that was running at their home track of Golden Gate Fields in San Francisco. The horse, named Noble Nick, was entered in a $16,000 claiming race — meaning that for the price of $16,000, Ari, a trainer at Golden Gate, could put in a claim to purchase the horse with his dad, who is an owner. Father and son decided to take a shot.
