    I had shares in 5 of them. None now.

    not worth it, they try and overcharge for perks

    you can’t bet on your own horse because too many owners knock the odds down

    Good info thanks Big Joe. I have thought about it, but have no clue what I'm doing.

    Likely a losing investment.

    Grandpa loved the horses and greyhounds. I am sure we were - even lifetime but wouldn't trade the memories for any amount of money 😊

    called sport of kings for a reason but every thing is simulcast now and the programs for throughough bredscost $9 and you only see last 6 races of each horse

    so i only do trotters program cost like $3.50 and see past 10 results of ech horse 10 races with $10avible each race $100

    heck win 4 out of $10 with lowest odds 3-1 $30 X 4 = $120 which u pocket for next trip then who knows you get monster long shot 10-1 or 15-1 $5 w & P no matter if chalk wins that was 6/5 your place money will pay more than the chalk win price like $12 per $2 12 X 2.5 =$30

    $10 to win on 6/5 fav pays you 22$ back or only $12 simple math guys or my rule less money invested with biggest pay out

    Define big?

    I am actively in the horse racing world as a young 20yo kid as well as in the sports betting world which I am happy to be moving up in the world with meeting new friends and workers in the industry

    I only cover a few tracks that I know that I can win at and also make good $$$ at too which are:
    Harness- Grand River Raceway (work as one of the handicappers on the broadcast and also work the timer/photo finish too!)
    Thoroughbred- Oaklawn Park (my best track to cover out of all of them! I have done very well L4 years and plan on doing it again in 2022-23!)
    Saratoga (started doing it this year and was close to making a flat bet profit on my top pick but overall T4 picks and exotics were profitable!)
    Triple Crown and Breeders Cup (both equal as I do very good or very bad year after year- BC this year was best yet!)

    I am interested to see if there was people out there on SBR who wanted to ever create a handicapping product like have a team of 5 or 6 guys and each person makes their picks/tickets and is created into 1 big consensus report I thought of it a while back just did not know if anyone was interested in covering Oaklawn park with me and doing a report to give to the public? Let me know

    Good stuff Conley. It's nice to see some youth getting into the industry.

    I'll have to look out for you on the broadcast next season if you are still at Grand River.

    Thank you for the kind words Foxx! Yes I have been doing this my whole life (well handicapping since 2011) but still in the industry for horse racing and getting to the sports betting side in 2019! I do feel that I am in the position to one day be a racing analyst or a sports handicapping guru on a TV network for sports betting! Only God can take that wheel!

    And yes please do so we have great handicappers on the feed! Thanks again

    Just for the heck of it let's look at this past weekend's cards from GP

    Sunday
    R1: no hits -15
    R2: 6-8 exacta $48.40 +33.40
    R3: no hits -15
    R4: no hits -15
    R5: no hits (close on tri) -15
    R6: no hits -15
    R7: no hits -15
    R8: no hits -15
    R9: no hits -15
    Bet: $135
    Ret: $48.40
    P/L: -86.60

    Saturday
    R1: no hits -15
    R2: no hits -15
    R3: no hits (close on tri) -15
    R4: 7-5 exacta $7.60 -7.40
    R5: no hits -15
    R6: no hits (close on tri) -15
    R7: no hits -15
    R8: no hits -15
    R9: no hits -15
    R10: no hits -15
    R11: no hits (close on tri) -15
    Bet: $165
    Ret: $7.60
    P/L: -157.40

    2 day betting total
    Bet: $300
    Ret: $56
    P/L: -244

    No offense bro but this is a surefire way to lose the rent money as quickly as possible
    Sure the 1 big bet can save your day but you need better handicapping that this imo I don't like hunch bets

    Hey Gold you do not need a Major league roll on sites like Derby Wars and Horse tourneys. a $12 buy can be the ticket to 1K scores or more.

    True my apologies about that still if you recalculate it again with the scratches it still proves my point though
