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 all 10 races from Gulfstream Park with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. A much needed day of rest after 12 straight days of handicapping and wagering. Today’s card from Gulfstream does provide some opportunities to score. Some cheap dirt races as usual and a few interesting turf affairs highlight the 10 race card. My Best Bet of the Day is in race 7 and I’ll be building my day around him using him as a single in the PK5, PK4 and PK3’s. We should get at least 5/1 on the win end too…

OK, The 12th straight day of selection finishes today with all 11 races from Gulfstream Park with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. Some cheap races dot the card but there are four solid turf races where anything could happen and I do believe I have the right ones identified. Two maiden turfers (5th & 8th) where I have slick ideas then toss in a competitive turf sprint and a turf allowance in the Late PK5 and now we have something worth looking forward to. Only 2 Top Pick Winners on Saturday and looking to finish the weekend strong. Visit…

OK, 2 Top Pick Winners from 10 Gulfstream races yesterday with two bad beats late including the 10th where I needed Salsita Roja for almost $1000 and she gets run down two jumps from the wire. For Saturday I’ve completely handicapped all 11 Gulfstream races with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. Slow starts to the card as usual and I plan on finishing with a bang. The 11th could be the toughest race on the card and I do believe I’ve found the one to blow them all up. If I’m correct here, the PK5 with explode with value,…

OK, Knew I wasn’t in love with anything yesterday as we did score with 2 Top Pick Winners from 10 races and seemed all around it in the others but didn’t select the winner on top. Kinda the same today, cheaper races make up most of the card and its hard to love them, rather I try to find an angle that should provide value if correct. There are a few turf runners I’m looking forward to playing. My wise guy idea yesterday got bumped out of the gate and never got a fair chance. Some nice races tomorrow -…

OK, Still rolling hot after 3 more Top Pick Winners on Wednesday including two on turf who took all the money. For Thursday I’ve completely handicapped all 10 Gulfstream races with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. Some interesting turf ideas today, not in love with anything as the races are on the cheaper side today but if they work out the way I see them, it could be an extremely rewarding day. I have one horse on top today who obviously has issues but has speed to spare when right. They entered the horse on dirt last week and…
