OK, Finished the weekend strong on Sunday with 4 Top Pick Winners and the Late PK5 of $679 on a $24 ticket. Finished the week with 10 Top Pick Winners from 41 races for 24% wins. A little rain greeted the morning today but should clear up and out for the afternoon. Chance of rain will continue for the afternoon so I have provided Off Turf Selections just in case as I’ve completely handicapped races 2-10 from Saratoga with Pick5, Pikc4 and Pikc3 wagers suggested. Some nice races and sequences today regardless what the weather does and I’m excited to…

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, Tough day yesterday for most folks but that’s a Saturday in Saratoga when things don’t go your way in the most competitive race meet of the season. For Sunday I’ve completely handicapped all 10 races with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. Some nice sequences today, some baby races to survive but some turf races to lean on. Trying to start the day with a bang then it would be all down hill from there. A very interesting baby in Late PK5 and my strongest play on turf as well. Settle in for a scorching Sunday afternoon.

OK, For Saturday I’ve completely handicapped all 11 races from Saratoga with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. Also we have a Cross Country PK5 today as well with stakes races from Monmouth Park and Woodbine. The favorites where on parade yesterday is seemed as I scratched out 2 Top Pick Winners. Today’s races start off slow but pick up speed. Some nice turf races today and the Late PK5 could be a big one as some of those races are deep water excursions. I have a Best Bet in the sequence who I’m expecting to be a $20 turf…

We made it… Navigating through an unforgettable 2020 has brought us to Opening Day at Saratoga Race Course. For the first time in 25+ years, I along with everyone else will miss Opening Day but as long as they continue to race safely, we’re excited to open up our city to racing once again. Racing will be different this season as some barns have not made the trip this year both from KY and from NYC. I’m all set, have the PP’s all done for the first few days and I’m ready to get started. I am looking to start…
