Handicapping

Gene McLean serves as Publisher as well as a daily contributing handicapping analyst. No one in this industry has more experience or talent in reviewing, forecasting and handicapping Thoroughbred racing. In addition, and as we collect data, we will publicize our experts Picks & Results. If other sites that offer handicapping tips and selections fail to do likewise, we will begin to collect that data, as well, and inform the general public on where our experts rank compared to others.
