Saratoga Opening Weekend!
Happy Saratoga opening weekend!
There is still plenty of time to catch today’s show with JK and I as we preview the Pick Six today at Saratoga. We also had a meet preview released earlier on YouTube that will stay relevant the entire meet, so be sure to give it a listen!
This week’s Players’ Pod of course dives more into their weekend action, as well as coverage of Saturday cards at Monmouth, Woodbine, and Colonial.
The first three episode of the BCBC Diaries have been released on the Breeders’ Cup YouTube page! Join myself over on the Breeders’ Cup YouTube page as I chat with Jackson Muniz, Craig Seidler, and Matt Miller to discuss their BCBC journeys to this point.
Finally, this is the LAST CALL to take part in the In the Money Media Survey. Don’t forget every survey participant will be entered in a random drawing for a FREE $250 bet!
MYWAYP,
PTF
