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, Our racing week kicks off today with some interesting races at both Belmont Park and Keeneland. I finished Sunday with 5 Top Pick Winners from 16 handicapped races. I have completely handicapped Belmont 1-9 and Keeneland 4-8 with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers for both. There is enough turf action sprinkled through those cards to try and set up some rewarding tickets. I have a (4 Star) Best Bet that anchors one of the Pick4’s so I’m anxious to get the gambling week started. Also available today from your Member Account is RacingWithBrunos Workout Report from Keeneland as Bruno…

Alright, The weekend comes to an end today but we have quite a few races to look forward too. It seems I’ve had seconditis for a few days now as I haven’t been able to get “my price horses” past the second spot. We have cashed some exactas on those and had 3 Top Pick Winners including the Hawthorne Derby but need to get a few more of these horses over the top and into the winners circle. For Sunday I have completely handicapped Belmont 1-10, Keeneland 5-9 and Woodbine 4,8-9 with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. Big turf…

OK, An action packed day of racing awaits as we have only two weeks till Breeders’ Cup and most of those horses are putting in there final ‘serious’ workouts today and do some maintenance next week. We do have some great action today at Belmont, Keeneland and even at Hawthorne. I have completely handicapped Belmont 1-10, Keeneland 6-10, plus will be adding Hawthorne race 8 – the Hawthorne Derby at 9F on turf. We cashed a bunch more tickets yesterday but again seemed we got way more 2nds than wins with great priced horses. Looking for the racing luck to…

OK, Couldn’t quite get my top selections over the top yesterday as we seemed to get too many 2nds at good prices while not being able to get the winners. We did score with both Best Bets as Watershed cruised at a short price at Keeneland and at Belmont Mr Maybe annihilated the competition. He sat the perfect trip as Corky asked what do I think. I said “he’s loaded, just waiting for a hole” and boom – race over. He found a hole and exploded opening up at will the easiest of winners. We did also have the cold…
