Handicapping Harness

Keeping It Close To Home

Didn't fare too bad with my Hazel selections yesterday so I'm going to stick with another back-yard track...Windsor..Click it right Download HERE.pdf for the picks.  The last I heard from the Estimator he was riding Elephants in Thailand..He may be home in time to post next weekend...and GO TIGERS!

Once Again

It's really a pleasant experience to wake up to money deposited into an account..the youbet.net contest wager held up nicely and another $100.00 was credited..click Download ScreenShot064.jpg for the final result and click it right Download HERE.pdf for some early Freehold selections...I notice that the Youbet.net contest is for $100 today instead of the $500 they offered last Saturday....For a link to their site click on Youbet.net ...good luck!  I forgot to mention what a sports day it is here in Detroit...Tigers are hot and play at 1PM, the Red Wings play at 3 and the Pistons at 7..add the Football Draft and it's a perfect Sports day to go along with Harness Racing..I have some more picks ready also.. click it Download HERE.pdf for selections at Pompano, Northfield, Windsor and Hazel Park!

Catch Me If You Can

Back at it again...my first bet at the Youbet.net contest has netted this result...click Download screenshot063_2.jpg and if you are interested I have some selections available also..click right Download HERE.pdf for some Pompano and where Power Of Sante Fe is racing...I wonder if my lead in the contest will hold up..yesterday after my first bet I was in second and fell like a rock trying to catch the leader....

The King Is Dead...Long Live The King

It would seem that the betting public have enamored Anthony Morgan as the new champ and have regulated John Campbell to the status of washed up journeyman...I think otherwise...You're going to make money on  Old John over at the Meadowlands...and watch your money being eaten up like playing a slot machine betting on Fast Tony...my picks today are anything John is listed on today as long as they are not chalk...good luck and have a pleasant evening Handicapping Harness...

And The Winner Is....

Thank you, thank you and thank you...the +1775% ROI in the Youbet.net daily contest held up nicely and lo and behold..$100.00 was transferred into my account today as a real money wager credit..To see the snapshot of the win just click on Download screenshot062_1.jpg (hope it works)  In other news I see that I am 0 fer 7 this week so far in my picks..I am going to try something different soon..maybe post them as they come along with acceptable odds and such..you may have to keep checking back every so often but it may be worth it...yesterday I had a couple of nice mid-shots which were late decisions..so check back later and if anyone has any to give out please do post them as a comment...

Tuesday Plays

O fer 4 yesterday....looking for best out of 3 today at Woodbine:

R 8 # 8 RENO RAIDER..2nd x lasix the charm?
R 9 # 3 ALL THE WEAPONS..Reversed form in last
R 10 # 5 HUSSY CHASER..Big stretch kicker..

FYI as of this posting my contest bet at Youbet.net is holding up so far at +1775. ROI..they offer a daily $100 prize and a whopping $500 on Saturday...be sure you sign up at youbet.com and use your same password and handle for youbet.net to avoid any possibility of winning the contest and not being paid out..the money goes into your regular youbet account to be used for real wagers...Good luck!

Monday Play Of The Day

The play today is at Northfield..Race 3 # # 5 BUSTAMANTE..Responded well to lasix and the driver change does not hurt chances... 

Horses to take a look at..Northfield..R 1 # 9 BEHOLDPALERIDER..The change to Brett Miller deserves a look  and in R 9 # 4 M-TWENTYTWO..Drops a notch and showed some early speed..R 10 # 4 SAND DANNY..also gets Miller and should be good...Good luck and have a pleasant evening Handicapping Harness!

Chalk It Up Sunday

Things are winding down in Vegas..My selections are in a free-fall..if you are a glutton click it Download HERE.pdf ...after all..misery loves company....most of these are going to be chalky....good luck!

Saturday Stardust Selections

With some of the guys in Vegas at the Stardust and The Estimator on a 2 week vacation in the Orient (I believe he is going to check out the track in Hong-Kong) I'm left all alone at Command Central once again...let's see how much damage I can do while everyone is gone..click it Download HERE.pdf for some Top Secret Selections and for those gluttons in Vegas part II of the eating poll is included below...

Stardust Special Selections

Carl "The Closer" blew into the Stardust for a farewell visit before they raze it and rebuild from the ashes...he wanted to play a little in their World Famous Sports-book..in it's time it was the premier spot in Vegas..so click it right  Download HERE.pdf for a special Freehold edition..I also hear that Carl is hosting a Vegas "Virgin" along for this trip...just a note of caution to the Virgin...after a couple of rounds those cocktail waitresses may start to catch your eye...many of them have been around when the Dust opened in 58...and they certainly are not "Virgins"..I also posted below the just released Vegas "Best Eating" FYI in case you guys get hungry..have a great time!
