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, Keeneland opened with a splash yesterday but unfortunately all we did was get wet. That is the essence of deep tough races though, have an opinion, take a swing and you’ll be rewarded if correct, much like Saratoga. Today is a great day of racing across America with the last round of Derby preps as the Bluegrass, The Wood and The Santa Anita derby are all being run this afternoon – meaning we will have an even muddier Derby picture by 8PM. For Saturday I’ve completely handicapped all 11 Keeneland races with some great turf races and stakes plus…

Alright, Its Opening Day at Keeneland Race Course – Spring is finally here. We are leaving the colony of cheap horses behind at Gulfstream Park and moving north. For Friday I’ve completely handicapped Keeneland races 1-10 with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. I feel recharged and rejuvenated after a few days without handicapping plus Keeneland proves rewarding to myself and the Members as we tend to cash better tickets here than Florida. There are some great betting races today and some deep turf races where I don’t think I have a favorite winning a turf race all day. The…
