Wise-Guy Bettors Say

Here’s a little advice on handicapping the Breeders’ Cup races at Lone Star Park: “Wise-guy bettors indicated to me that the turf course (a Santa Anita look-alike) has a profound bias toward closing, stretch runners and is murder on pacesetters. The main track plays fair, unless the weather is unusually hot and humid, when speed is king and the times are very fast.” (MSNBC)
