This past weekend we said so long to Gulfstream Park -- maybe next year we figure out how to bet the Tapeta surface. Overall, the Winter meet was a good one; however too many favorites on the dirt, the turf was the place to make money, and the Tapeta seemed to play to the favorite or to uncoverable longshots.
Personally, I'm looking forward to the move to Belmont soon, and the race cards at Parx have been offering full fields and excellent payouts. The switch to Monday through Wednesday racing has helped their fields and increased their handle.
Moving forward, We will offer plays on Parx Racing Wednesday cards until the move to Belmont when we will cover Belmont Park cards for Friday through Sunday. Additionally, we will cover big race day cards for Kentucky Oaks, Kentucky Derby Day, along with Preakness Day card.
Finally, we will be covering every race day for the Saratoga 2022 meet.
