Principal Handicapping LLC

Principal Handicapping is your source for NYRA horse racing picks and handicapping specifically for Belmont, Saratoga and Gulfstream. My friends and I talk about the NY and FL jockey/trainer colonies as if they are our friends. We talk horses, argue about horse ancestry, pull money together, build horizontal wagers, and escape to the world of the racetrack every weekend. I will share our wagering adventures pre and post race weekends.

Additionally, I will share my weekend selections for the NYRA circuit and switch to Gulfstream for the Championship Meet in the winter. I will also provide product reviews on different handicapping products as well as reviews of horse racing / betting books.
