- Who: Thoroughbreds – Master of Hounds, Smiling Tiger, Silver Timber, Uncle Mo, Goldikova, Here Comes Ben, Workforce, Zenyatta
- What: Horse Racing Betting Tips – The Breeders’ Cup
- Where: Churchill Downs.
- When: Friday and Saturday, November 5th and 6th.
The Breeders’ Cup is not only a spectacle for horse racing fans, it’s also a golden opportunity for serious bettors to make a score. As I’ve pointed out many times, these huge wagering pools are filled with ‘square money’. Thus, the payoffs, especially for exotic wagers, are often incredibly high. I’ll be putting together some $1.00 Pick 4’s and $2.00 Pick 6’s for both days, which you’ll see below. Because of space constraints, I won’t be able to offer much in the way of handicapping insights. However, you may want to check out my article from last Friday, as my opinions haven’t changed significantly.
