I was fishing with my son at a farm lake. They have some beautiful acres, and best of all a 3/8ths training track. It is well-groomed, and sits back in a very quiet area. I was thinking that if I were a horse, that it would be a welcome place to vacation away from the […]

It is time to start taking inventory. No, not on how many boxes you have or why you didn’t do your work project. One where you take a look at your methods, and find your madness. I get a lot out of talking with folks and knowing what makes them tick. It is like handicapping […]

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 […]

I love it when someone jumps up and does the right thing. Kudos to Emerald Downs. They have the right idea. Everyone has heard of “Groupon” by now. It is where many people can purchase into a special deal, and pay a little, and get added value. On 5/15, they offered up a night at […]

In hindsight, I could have done so many things that would have been great. It would be impossible to count the billions of them! – The newest is that I have had more friends, pals, and long time customers tell me that they had Shackleford on the nose. Roughly speaking, if one-quarter of these folks […]

The Belmont Stakes has become a tricky race to handicap lately for several reasons. While favorites have triumphed about 40 percent during the past 142 races, that hasn’t been the case the last three decades as only six won — 23 percent. And 15 winners during the past 30 years rewarded backers with double-digit returns […]

This is the third time during the past two decades that the Preakness has a full field – 14 horses going 1 3/16 miles at Pimlico on Saturday.  Both times the favorites in the second leg of the Triple Crown bounced back from defeats in the Kentucky Derby. Back in 1992, Pine Bluff, who finished […]

This Saturday, Pimlico holds the second jewel in the Triple Crown. Baltimore offers a chance for runners who skipped Louisville two weeks ago. They come into the 1 3/16ths race fresh, and on a solid work program to ready. But, as good as this sounds, it may be a better plan to select the colts that have competed […]

Each year a race track has some folks that come out of the woodwork to take part in the rite of spring. They may come and stay for awhile, and some make the run for a few months. But one gent that used to come out and take part will always stick out in my […]
