Catchword: hot dog horse

Filed Under: English, Horses, Sports & Recreation

Part of Speech: n.

Quotation: A “sausage horse” would be a derogatory term in Australia, indicating that it is where the animal will end up, but a “hot dog horse” is the opposite. It applied to one always at short odds because of its popularity and which the betting man couldn’t afford to support, thus a snack break was taken when it raced.
