AP reported that when Giacomo, the 50-1 long shot named after Sting's 9-year-old son, won the Kentucky Derby May 7, Trudie had money down, turning $500 into $25.000 by betting on the horse.
Sting stated that "On the day of the race, we were backstage in New Hampshire and my wife called and said, `You'd better watch the television because our son is racing,'" Sting told Rolling Stone magazine in its latest issue. "Then she said, `I'm gonna put some money on it.'"
As for the winnings, Sting says it might already be gone. "It's my wife's money," he says. "And she's probably spent it already."

OMG!! Well i never thought Trudie was the gambling sort, like they dont have enough money as it is!! I think she shud give it to Giacomo (her son) seen as it (the horse) is named after him, lol, huum i wonder how a 10 (or 9) year old boy would spend $25000?!!! :/
---------------------------------------------------
Apparently he came 3rd at the Preakness!! Pretty good!! Huum.. any1 know if Trudie had a bet on?

Trudie should have given the bucks to the poor and the elderly. What a shame...
