OK, A very nice Opening Day for Pick4win Players yesterday as I tabbed 3 Top Pick Winners and was DQ’d from the 4th. Fantastic start to the meet as we roll into day 2. For Friday I’ve completely handicapped all 10 races from Saratoga with Pick5, Pick4, Pick3 and Off Turf Picks provided as some rain rolled through overnight.

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.

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…
