Horses really weren't his best thing, were they?
I feel as though I've seen it before too, but could have been on this piece. I see it as an 'M', in part because it is the more likely initial...

I never win anything. Are you sure? OK, I'll accept gracefully & gratefully & take the calendar. Will PM address.
