You gotta love New York…. Every Saturday, you can count on having a guarantee for the final P-4. They always have some great races, and this week is no different. So, sit back and grab your pen, and let’s take this gimmick to the house. On Friday, there was a sealed off track and weather [...]
If you have ever tuned in to our Internet radio show, we always try and make racing as informative mixed with a good dash of fun. We have special guests and talk about how we are doing with our “EZ-Win” forms. A good pal brought something t0 my attention the other day. Long ago, we had [...]
As spring was ushered in with the 15-day meeting at Keeneland racecourse, players from around the country counted each passing race, as they went by so quickly. It was wet this season, and the action in the bluegrass vanished into the cool Kentucky rain. I made it down to see the splendor. It was one of the rare sunny [...]
Do you remember when Keeneland had that fast, speed favoring, dirt course? If you got on the lead, the race was for place. But, with poly track being installed, many trainers look elsewhere to prep to get ready for the dirt. This is no dig in any way against Keeneland. It is the preferred method [...]
The synthetic revolution arrived in the middle of the night, and before our eyes, has transformed racing. Well, maybe not so dramatic, but you get the picture. For all of the good stuff that synthetic ovals have provided for racing, the issue of determining a runner’s ability to compete on the greatest stage, can be [...]
I have been looking at some plays that really attract my interest, and more importantly my wallet. Sometimes it is better to select a few races and make a couple of prudent wagers. It sounds like parlay time, and what better time than now. I would suggest picking two - three tracks, and no more. I [...]
Friday is Pick-4 day at Keeneland. It has a guarantee, and it covers the best race of the day. What more could you ask for? How about some free selections to compare against all of the tier levels. Race #7 #3 Zermatt (4-1) – Johnny Velasquez in the saddle for Pletcher. If this sounds good, [...]
This Saturday at Saratoga will be the 141st running of the Travers Stakes, and best of all, it offers a $1 million guaranteed Pick-4. It will be an all-stakes, and you can bet it will take some heat. Race #9 - Victory Ride (G3) – 6 furlongs: I am going to work up a $72 [...]
We did pretty well on Wednesday, but as predicted, they would not pay much. There was a huge Pick-6 carryover, and WinningPonies is always dialed to cash in. Saratoga – Thursday Race #2 – #1 Stargleam (4-1) Ramon Dominguez up for Chris Engelhardt (20%). 1/1 at The Spa, and comes fresh off a claim where [...]
This week is going to be a scorcher across the country. The racing will be just as hot, and what a way to start off your week than with a few winners to either make up for any losses, or begin again for this weekend early? Saratoga – Monday Race #1 – #8 Spirit of [...]
