Fast and firm for the finale of the Winter meet at Gulfstream — an incredible day of racing yesterday culminating with the Florida Derby, but not an incredible of handicapping with only two winners on top, but there is still a chance my best bets could be profitable for the meet if I hit a few decent ones today, so wish me luck!

In race 10, Urban Fairytale (#6) comes back off a layoff and is being ridden by Chris Landeros who is 0 for 119 at the meet, but figures here and may give Chris a fairytale ending — key in all late multi-race wagers and play an exacta box with #’s 10 and 3.

In race 9, Believe Indeed (#6) goes for profitable connections and has run well on dirt before and always shows up — key in all doubles and pick 3′s and play an exacta box with #’s 8 and 7.  Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Fast and firm for the 14-race super card at Gulfstream — it’s an incredible day of racing here during a time where horseplayers across the country appreciate the opportunity to handicap a “Saratoga like” card in March, during a pandemic!  Two days left in the meet and I have a chance to have a flat bet profit on best bets with a good day today, so wish me luck!

In race 13, The Grade 3 Appleton, Ballagh Rocks (#4) loves the local course and has prepped last two against lesser to get back with the big guns — should get a nice trip with this post and his best race wins this at 5-1 or better!  Key in all doubles and pick 3′s and play an exacta box with #’s 3 and 7.

In race 8, Vekoma (#8) is working well after the Kentucky Derby layoff and has good positional speed and 7 furlongs is perfect for the return — key in all doubles and pick 3′s and play an exacta box with #’s 2 and 10.   Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Fast and firm for the Friday card — despite a brutal beat of a 7-1 best bet in the finale yesterday, we still had 3 winners on top, which made the win bets profitable and 4 exacta boxes which made that bet profitable, so let’s see how we do today with Gafflione very live throughout the card.

In race 4, First Wave (#4) comes back off the layoff and anything close to turf sprint at Saratoga will win this — key in all doubles and pick 3′s and play an exacta box with #’s 9 and 5.

In race 8, Camp Randall (#4) is 2 for 2 sprinting on turf here and is ready to make it 3 in a row on or just off the pace — key in all doubles and pick 3′s and play an exact box with #’s 3 and 7.  Here’s the entire card, complete with 7 best bets, so good luck!

Fast and firm for the Thursday card — just saw the card to Florida Derby Day and it’s like being in Saratoga on a big day, so I can’t wait to post picks.  Yesterday was an 0 for 4 day on best bets and 0 for 10 on the entire card, not great for stats, but picks 3′s were profitable on the day, so at least something positive happened.  Let’s see if we can pick some winners today!

In race 10, Devoted Kitten (#9) goes for profitable connections and can win this with a clean trip at a decent price — key in all doubles and pick 3′s and play an exacta box with #’s 1 and 3.

In race 3, Island Song (#8) comes back for great connections, is working well for return and should sit a perfect trip in this turf sprint — key in all doubles and pick 3′s and play an exacta box with #’s 7 and 3.  Here’s the entire card and good luck!
