It’s a very good day of racing as were leading up to the Breeders’ Cup. We have some great races today and I feel I have identified some races where the favorites are vulnerable and the potential for tremendous payoffs exist. I have handicapped 7 races for today including 3 @ Belmont Park (races 7-9, so I have a great Pick3 opportunity and most of the late Pick4 identified), 3 @ Keeneland ( races 3-4, & 9 with a juicy 10/1 + shot on top in the QE2) , plus the Hawthorne Derby which has the look of the best…

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.

It’s Super Saturday – Breeders Cup preps abound with many stakes at Belmont and Santa Anita today. The races will come into a better focus once the dust settles. The main track at Opening Day at Santa Anita was unusually deep and sandy leading to a parade of front running winners. The turf is perfect so those races will be unaffected. I have 7 races handicapped all at Belmont Park for Saturday available on www.pick4win.com including the All Stakes Pick 4. Point of Entry is a single in the Turf Classic so that race wasn’t included in my analysis. Email…
