Kentucky Oaks and Kentucky Derby Edition
After the longest wait in history between Kentucky Derbies -- and Oakses! -- the weekend is finally here. I'll be watching in Saratoga at Taverna Novo and if you're in the area, you should come join us. We'll be outside and distanced, and all set up to have a ton of fun. Get all the details here.
As for the rest of you, I'm going to give you an idea. You know those friends who come out of the woodwork each year asking you what they should do about betting the Derby? Well, this year, in addition to whatever betting advice you want to share, you should offer them something even more valuable. We have three, count 'em three, good offers right now with various ADWs where they can get what amounts to free money.
The Twinspires offer is probably the coolest ones for your casual racing fan friends -- a free $200 on the big race for new customers. Especially as a Tiz the Law believer, this one seems a great way to turn the promo code ITM200 into free cash. Check it out at Twinspires.com or click the banner below.
For a more serious player, the 1stBet offer we have right now is super cool. A 10 percent rebate on your action up to $1000. The code there is ITM1000 and you need to sign up via the 1st Bet app. This is only for new 1stBet/Xpressbet customers.
Last one is our Bet $200/Get $200 offer with NYRABets. For that one, use the promo code REWIND.
If you don't have an account at one of these already, there's no better time to sign up. And I would really appreciate it if you get friends and family to sign up as well. Racetrack marketing folks love the concept of marketing ROI, and the more times our codes get used, the more they'll want to work with us and the more great content we can bring you all for free.

CONTEST OUTCOME: A big thanks to everyone who participated in our social media contest - Make sure to follow the ITM Twitter Feed for future contests. We’ve added a wrinkle to the outcome. Two “winners” were selected but in sporting fashion, this will be settled on the track. Jonathan Peebles (@jpeebs1989) will take Swiss Skydiver against Jeff Ayers (@ksujeff2003) and Gamine - whichever charge has a better finish in the Kentucky Oaks will determine who gets the $250 prize.

Stronach 5 Podcast - September 4th, 2020
Don’t sleep on the Stronach 5 - With the majority of the attention on the Kentucky Oaks, this is a wager that shouldn’t be discounted. PTF was joined by 2019 NCH Champion, Scott Coles to go over the Stronach 5 sequence from Laurel Park, Gulfstream and Golden Gate. The Stronach 5 starts in race 7 from Laurel Park (post time 4:05 PM EDT). Don’t forget our partnership with 1/ST BET for new players (ITM1000) - And to be clear, this would apply to all Kentucky Oaks and Derby wagers, not just the Stronach 5.
There’s still time and it’s worth a listen if you never got around to the Monster Pod. PTF and JK setup a rockstar lineup of guests. This is the veritable must listen show ahead of the Derby.
