Three big Derby preps lead the way on a busy weekend of winter racing. JK and I talk the Holy Bull and Robert B. Lewis on a show previewing the Santa Anita Pick Six and Coast to Coast Pick Five for Saturday. That show also has Mike Pribozie and Jackson Muniz discussing the Late Pick Five from Gulfstream Park. You can check out my horse-by-horse analyses for those Derby preps here:
The remaining Derby prep tomorrow, the Withers from Aqueduct, is covered on an ITM Plus show coming later today. Nick Tammaro and Eric DeCoster go over the Pick Six sequence from the Big A. There will be another Plus show for Sunday with coverage from Oaklawn.
Finally, there’s still time to get involved with some Friday action from Gulfstream and Santa Anita. We have two shows for you with myself hosting — Gulfstream Park Late Pick Four with Brian Nadeau and Santa Anita All-Turf Pick Three with Dean Keppler.
