It was a fine, bright day at Downpatrick Races and Orange Billy wasn't doing very well. As he tore up his betting slip in disgust, he noticed a priest step out onto the course and bless the forehead of one of the horses lining up for the third race. Lo and behold, the horse won at 16/1.
Naturally enough, Billy was most interested to see what the priest did before the next race. Sure enough, the priest stepped out onto the course as the horses lined up for the fifth race and placed a ...

Naturally enough, Billy was most interested to see what the priest did before the next race. Sure enough, the priest stepped out onto the course as the horses lined up for the fifth race and placed a blessing on the forehead of one of the horses. Billy made a beeline for the bookies and put a tenner on the horse. It came in first at 20/1.
Billy collected his winnings and anxiously waited to see which horse the priest would bless in the next race. The priest showed up as before, blessed a horse, Billy bet on it, and it won. Billy was ecstatic.
By the last race, Billy was convinced his wildest dreams were going to come true. He went to the cash machine, withdrew his life savings, and awaited the priest’s blessing that would tell him which horse to bet on.
True to his pattern, the priest stepped out onto the course before the last race and this time blessed the forehead, eyes, ears and hooves of one of the horses. Billy bet every penny he had on it – only to watch in despair as it came in last by a mile.
Dumbfounded, he chased down the priest and screamed at him “What happened, you Papist shite? All day long you blessed horses and they won. The last race, you blessed a horse and it lost. Now, thanks to you, I’ve lost all my savings!”
The priest nodded wisely and said: “That’s the problem with you Protestants: you can’t tell the difference between a simple blessing and the Last Rites.”
