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.

Alright, A spectacular day of racing awaits at Gulfstream Park on Florida Derby Day. I have completely handicapped all 14 races with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. The Rainbow PK6 will also be forcefully paid out with $2 million in the pool. The races start at 11:30 and its really a great card, lots of turf racing, lots of stakes and hopefully it won’t be the last day of racing as COVID19 sweeps the nation closing tracks, businesses and cities across the country. I have Stable Mail horses in today including on of the Best Bets where my nore…

OK, A fantastic weekend of racing awaits as long as everything runs smoothly. For Friday I completely handicapped all 11 races from Gulfstream Park with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. Rolling hot and feeling good after 6 Top Pick Winners from 10 Gulfstream races on Friday lead by Too Much War $13.60 $4.00 $2.40 and Kayseri $9.00 $3.60 $3.00 I really like the look of today’s races with lots of turf races that I have a distinct choice in and I’m looking forward to pressing on those opinions today.
