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.

I have 9 races available today, I did not handicap the first two races as they are steeplechase races. Visit www.pick4win.com to purchase today’s selections. The racing card today looks kinda interesting. As I suspected yesterday, longshots cashed in big time as trainers got some ship money to defray costs of shipping back to whatever venue is next for them. This trend should continue for the next 5 days. I have identified some of these possible scenarios with some potential big payouts. The late Pick4 might be a doozy, and I plan on bringing it home. For Thursday’s Free Pick…

Let’s kick off the final week of Saratoga in style. Expect some crazy results this week as barns ‘put over’ longshots. It’s called Ship Money. In theory, they will cash tickets after putting over long priced horses which helps defray the cost of shipping entire barn and crew to next destination. Been happening for ages. For Wednesday, I have all 10 races available with suggested Pick3’s and both Pick4’s. There look to be some juicy races today as I may have already identified some ship money specials. Visit www.pick4win.com to purchase today’s selections. For Wednesday’s Free Pick ~ Saratoga race…

Back at it Sunday but I don’t know how. Took another brutal loss, this time with Mentor Cane in the Kings Bishop. I know he is immensely talented and had a legitimate excuse for his previous effort. I bet him with both hand, then went back for more. He ran the field into the ground early. opened up 4 lengths mid-stretch only to get run down by some Todd Pletcher rat. Heartbreaking loss again, this one only cost me $5000 as I would have had both Pick4’s and the trifecta in the Kings Bishop. Two horrible bad beat seconds in…
