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, Fantastic day of racing action with stakes races galore and the last round of KY Derby prep races. For Saturday I’ve completely handicapped all 11 races from Keeneland and all 11 races from Aqueduct with Pick5, Pick4 and Pick3 wagers suggested. Each track has an All Stakes PK5. I’ve also listed the All Turf PK3 and the Cross Country PK5. Some places to lean in every location, gonna be a fun afternoon. It was bombs away at Keeneland yesterday. We ran 2nd in the 2nd at 12/1 in the first turf race of the season as it took more…

OK, Its Officially Spring as its Opening Day at Keeneland Race Course. Outside of Saratoga and Kentucky Downs, this is some of the toughest, most competitive racing year in and year out. Most barns have left their winter locations to move back to KY or pass through on the way back to Belmont Park. Keeneland also unveiled the All Turf PK3 last meet, which is always my focus as its a tremendous value bet at the $3 increment. Some rain may fall today but that won’t dampen the spirits. I have already handicapped the Aqueduct races for today but won’t…
