Three race horses in adjoining stalls were arguing over which of them was the best.
“Of my last sixteen races, I’ve won eleven,” said the first horse.
“Not bad,” said the second horse. “But of my last twenty races, I’ve won fifteen.”
“Impressive,” said the third horse. “But of my last twenty-eight races, I’ve won twenty-five.”
A greyhound who was lurking nearby overheard the horses arguing and decided to join the conversation.
“I don’t mean to brag,” said the greyhound, “but of my last forty-six races, I’ve won forty-four.”
The horses were clearly astonished. After a long silence, one of the horses said in an awestruck voice, “Wow! A talking dog!”
