"I have set my life upon a cast, I will stand the hazard of the die" Richard III
The movie "Secretariat" offers a lot of lessons.
1) Having the best horse is only the start.
2) You need someone to champion the cause
3) You need a trainer, coach, whatever to bring out the best in your resource.
4) Finally you need to be able to risk it all on a single throw of the die
