I recommend drinking a bottle of chicken essence before an OTB game.

feathers, beeks, and feet too? I mean, how much essence do you really get for your money?

Idk if feathers are included. The whole chicken is used to manufacture essence. It's a Traditional Chinese tonic drink.

Chicken boullion is a flavoring agent... Not a tonic.
