BALTIMORE -- It was taxing times at the race course today as the underdog horse Taxed triumphed over the competition at the annual Black-Eyed Susan Stakes. The impressive mare, previously known for her ability to calculate depreciation and claim deductions, surprised the crowd by closing strong for a commanding win over previously unbeaten favorite, Hoosier Philly, and the always intimidating Faiza. Taxed, who was originally adopted by owner Richard Bahde as an accountant's assistant due to her keen financial aptitude, was claimed for $50,000 last year. As it turns out, she is quite the multitasker - this $300,000 race at Pimlico saw her winning by 3 ¾ lengths, proving that she knows how to properly manage both her finances and her fitness. Many spectators were left puzzled by the unexpected turn of events with some suspecting foul play. "It could be tax evasion!" one racegoer exclaimed, clearly distraught by the outcome. "Hoosier Philly was clearly the favorite...what sort of scheme did this Taxed horse have up her sleeve?!" However, most in attendance couldn't help but applaud the triumph of this unassuming mare. "It's not every day you see a horse that can balance a ledger, file taxes, and win a prestigious race," said another fan, who remained anonymous. "I'm just waiting to hear if she's also solved world hunger and brokered world peace." Despite the mixed crowd reactions, the air was filled with excitement and shouts of "Taxation without representation!" rang through the arena. Some even expressed interest in seeking Taxed's advice for their own financial matters. As for Taxed, she remained remarkably composed despite her newfound status as an overnight sensation. When asked how she'll spend her winnings, she simply snorted and trotted away - presumably to consult her CPA. The race's organizers hope for more drama and inspiring stories like Taxed's underdog victory in future years. In the meantime, all eyes will be on the talented Taxed, the first horse to break the glass ceiling between accountancy and racing.
