  • Too Political…Don’t Recommend

    Two spoiled privileged guys who like to intertwine their strong political views with their less than stellar handicapping. Not worth it. There are other better horse racing pods.

  • What a bad political take every episode? This is for you

    Canceled my subscription. Low-iq political takes to start off the last several episodes. Embarrassingly left leaning bias. Stick to horse racing, you’d probably do better on the tracks. And I know, you know that your numbers are dropping - you need to focus on performance.

  • Entertainment Only.

    A relaxed, fun podcast where the “dudes” are passionate about the ponies. Listen and you will learn a few things. With that said, as handicappers, they are NO better than anyone else. Speak Of The Devil was their “LOCK” of the Belmont weekend. Proceed with caution and don’t spend any cash on their product.

  • SMH

    Would be very scared to go to the bar with these guys. They can’t even tell the sex of the horses when it is listed on the form.

    That was from the Breeders Cup.

    Today’s podcast is still showing how little you know. 90 days means 90 days. All racing jurisdictions will go along with a suspension. Nothing can switch back to Baffert for the Preakness. Not even a possibility.

Q: What do you think about the likelihood of these horses moving on to the Derby?
It's tough. I would say under two and a half, but wouldn't be surprised if it's over.
