Weekend Winners Club

. Saturday, October 10, 2020. It’s another big Breeders’ Cup preview day, this time at Belmont Park, which is hosting 4 Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup Challenge (BCC) Races.  That means the winner of each of these gets an automatic entry to a specific Breeders’ Cup race. . Last week the bulk of the action was […]

. Wed, October 7, 2020.  Breeders’ Cup Challenge races abounded around the continent last weekend and will continue this weekend.  With all the races at Belmont, Keeneland, Pimlico, and Santa Anita, the Grid kept popping up with winner after winner, and Grid long shot specials were scattered throughout. .

Sunday, September 6, 2020.  Hindsight is 2020 this year, especially when you cheated yourself out of the best PP’s in horse racing and missed out on $thousands in winnings, because you didn’t want to make a $9 investment in racing information and instead forked over hundreds to the track instead of winning. .
