“ A 10-hour party to celebrate a two-minute race.” -- Kegasus, Lord of the Pimlico Infield. The race may only be about two minutes long, but everything from 2:30 PM on is televised on VS. and then on NBC. Nothing is more exciting than watching your horse battling down the stretch in race after race. At least that’s usually the case. But this Saturday there will a grand finale that even tops your horse battling to a photo... Read more

Almost every year that a horse has wins in the first two legs of the Triple Crown under its belt, and this year for Calvin Borel, a jockey with two Triple Crown wins under his belt, the Belmont Stakes became one Triple Crown race too many. The same was true for us and our Belmont Package. The Belmont Stakes was just one Triple Crown race too many. Although many other racing service and free handicapper with the same selections...

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." -- Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities I t was the best of bets, it was the worst of bets -- Rob Crowne, A Tale of Two Bets The Crowne Club lived through a shizophrenic weekend. After winning in the Breeders' Cup 14 out of 16 years, picking up one of the biggest payouts in Breeders' Cup history two years ago, and winning 71% of their races bet last year, the Wall...

Tampa Bay -170 over Philadelphia (Shields over Myers) Last night I gave you a win with Philadelphia as pick. The professional sports handicapper has no team loyalty. My loyalty is to whichever team handicaps to win the game I'm handicapping. Tonight that's Tampa Bay as a -170 favorite. I don't have time to be funny or run through every statistic tonight. We have the first day of Breeders' Cup action coming up tomorrow... Read more

It took Rick Dutrow almost two days to finally place the blame for Big Brown's failure on jockey Kent Desmoreaux. Dutrow and other observers have said that Desmoreaux tried to force Big Brown to the outside in a panic. That's probably true, but it still doesn't explain Big Brown's refusal to fire. A glance at the close-up films of Big Brown in the race, however, tells the story. As I noted in my PreGame blog article before... Read more

EXPECTATION

05/06/2008 2:53 PM ·

Saturdays Kentucky Derby was a sad day in racing. Almost immediately after the race ended and the second-place finisher, Eight Belles, broke both ankles and was immediately euthanized. It hasnt been discussed, but the fault lies with either the track, or more likely with the jockey. A horse doesnt break two ankles after the race is over unless there is a serious fault in the track or the rider doesnt gallop it out properly... Read more

WINNING WITH RACE EXOTICS

05/02/2008 8:19 AM ·

In last year's Kentucky Derby we hit the Exacta paying $101, and the Triple paying $440 for each $2 bet. We won another Triple paying $46.20, an exacta returning $18, an additional Exacta paying $41.20, and a Daily Double paying $113. In sports, the general rule is that exotic bets are strictly for suckers. There are only two very limited exceptions to that rule. Thus, the question arises, why are exotic bets acceptable...
