TOP PICKS & SUGGESTED WAGERS I handicap the races and list Four Horses per race (plus another in case scratches) in order of preference starting with the Top Pick so multi-race and inter-race wagers can be formed. Currently, I am focused on BELMONT PARK & CHURCHILL DOWNS providing my Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagering strategies. My selections for turf races are 2nd to none. I find value and Double Digit Top Pick Turf Winner as my specialty.. Spot Plays may also be included in the daily selections, weekends more probable. Tracks for potential Spot Plays include WOODBINE, SANTA ANITA PARK, LAUREL PARK, GULFSTREAM PARK, and DELAWARE PARK. I'll focus around turf races looking to cash nice tickets.
OK, For Friday i’ve completely handicapped all 8 races from Belmont at the Big A with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3s suggested. My major focus today is The Best Bet. A turf horse I’ve been waiting for that should pay $20+. I’ve got them singled in the PK5 and can’t wait to play. For Friday’s Free Pick ~ BAQ race 8 ~ #4 PELICAN PRIDE – The Kentucky Derby winning trainer ships this NYB in from her base for breeder/owner Sol Kumin, who also owns the sire Slumber. Slumber was an outstanding turf horse who loved a distance of ground, so…

OK, For KY oaks Day, I’ve completely handicapped all 13 races from Churchill Downs with Pick5, Pick4, Pick3, All Turf Pick4 and Trifecta wagers suggested. Grab the Oaks/Derby Pass for access to all the Two Day Oaks/Derby Wagers. Fantastic weekend on tap. I love one in the Kentucky Derby and will be singled in every wager. Haven’t felt this strong for the Derby in over 10 years. One of the jockeys made the comment I’ve been waiting for – and its go time! But that’s tomorrow, today’s races are a wonderful start to the festival. So many wagers so picks…

OK, For Thursday I’ve completely handicapped all 12 races from Churchill Downs with Pick5, Pick4, and Pick3 wagers. They stuck an Arabian race in the middle of the day so I may only play once its over, my two key turf races are both in the Late PK5 and my two Best Bets are in those turf races. We can play win wagers, PK3s along with the Late PK5. The afternoon looks fun and I’m looking forward to playing.
