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 Wednesday I’ve completely handicapped races 2-10 from Saratoga with Pick5, Pick4, Pick3 and Off Turf picks provided as rain is expected to roll in after 4PM. Kicking off Closing Week with some nice opportunities as the early PK5 will have turf and keep an eye to the sky in the late afternoon.

OK, The storm has passed, Travers Day is through as we ease out of the meet with 7 gambling days left. I did manage 4 Top Pick Winners through the first 6 races yesterday but when Hog Creek Hustle unleashed a furious run only to get beat a nose, the tide changed. No idea why Higher Honors was so close to the pace yesterday in the Travers as I was expecting him to make one run late. As i said, moving on and let’s cash out. For Sunday I’ve completely handicapped all 10 races with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers…

OK, A few turf races to play with today as they have taken the 5th, 7th & 10th races off the turf as I’ve completely handicapped all 10 races with Pick5, Pick4, Pick3 and Off Turf Picks provided. Rough sledding yesterday as I tabbed 2 Top Pick Winners from 9 races as there was delays, lots of rain, no turf and scratches galore. Thankfully they’ve left a race on turf in both PK5’s which helps for sure but I’ve also identified some live runners on dirt as well and I’m looking forward to playing.
