Horse Fever

Bruno "Mandrake" Fioretti (Gigi Proietti) has not missed a day at the Rome racetrack in years, and he is down to his last lira after betting too much on one horse. Steno puts him next to his pal Armando "Er Pomata" Pellicci (Enrico Montesano), who follows Mandrake's tips and his bad luck. Their friendship holds up through every lost ticket, a loyalty that keeps them side by side on the rail.
