This show is all about Betting on horse races. It's not a show that gives out picks or talks about handicapping. Instead, we have a guest each week and we go in depth about how they approach the betting side of the game. If you are a new horseplayer or someone who thinks they are good at handicapping but not so good at betting, then this is the podcast for you.
