Sally... was plucking a big white drake for dinner next day... He was a great-grandfather, she explained... and bound to be as tough as old boots if she did not put him on to simmer for a long time. (K. S. Prichard, ‘Golden Miles’, ch. 23) — Салли... ощипывала большую белую утку к завтрашнему обеду... Это селезень - старый-престарый, объяснила Салли гостье... и, конечно, будет жесткий как подошва, если его как следует не потушить.

4 a long shot
1) рискованное предприятие, смелая попытка‘This is going to be very tough and a very long shot,’ he said. ‘I want that fully understood...’ ‘You are perfectly right to emphasize the risk, Captain. We fully accept that.’ (A. Hailey and J. Castle, ‘Runway Zero-Eight’, ‘Six 0300-0325’) — - Посадка этого самолета - дело чрезвычайно рискованное, - сказал Треливен. - Я хочу, чтобы все это поняли... - Вы совершенно правы, капитан, что подчеркиваете рискованность этой посадки. Мы все полностью согласны с вами.
2) предположение; сомнительная возможностьBut there was something he could check. It was a long shot, but all that was needed was a phone call. (A. Hailey, ‘Airport’, part III, ch. 2) — Но проверить кое-что он все-таки мог. Правда, это имеет к делу косвенное отношение. Но и никаких особых усилий от него не требуется - достаточно телефонного звонка.
