all in Gambling

Every Sunday Noel Michaels will provide free full-card picks for a one racecard in North America. A veteran handicapper and tournament-play pioneer, Michaels also writes a weekly “Weekend Winners” blog for America’s Best Racing with a focus on key stakes races at marquee tracks. This feature will be straight-forward: full-card picks for one Sunday slate of races of his choosing.

Welcome to Noel Michaels’ Weekend Winners, the place to go for weekend best bets and spot plays from veteran handicapper and tournament-play pioneer Noel Michaels. Check back every week for a couple of highlighted selections designed to help you cash a few bets and make some money.

The $1.5 million Longines Kentucky Oaks May 2 at Churchill Downs is the most important dirt race of the year that is restricted to 3-year-old fillies and typically goes a long way toward determining the Eclipse Award in the division.

For the ninth year in a row, America’s Best Racing is challenging some of the brightest minds in horse betting to come up with their top three picks for key races every weekend leading up to the 2025 Triple Crown and then continuing through the 2025 Breeders’ Cup World Championships. The handicappers face off in what we like to call the “Big-Race Showdown.”

With all the spring buzz in Thoroughbred racing focused on the Triple Crown, it can be easy to overlook that the new Belmont at the Big A spring/summer meet is here, starting on May 1. The meet, which occupies the dates normally held at Belmont Park, will be among the season’s most important race meets for horsemen and horseplayers.
