Long shot
long shot,
1. a horse, team, etc., that has little chance of winning and carries long odds. What would be the best translation in Spanish for "long shot" in the above sense? (It reminds me to "underdog", although not exactly the same, "el que tiene menos posibilidades"...) La apuesta menos segura, la apuesta más azarosa/improbable... are options that come to mind... any other takes? (shorter as possible, preferably.) "Posibilidad remota"?
