all in Gambling

The 25th National Thoroughbred Racing Association (NTRA) National Horseplayers Championship (NHC) presented by Caesars Entertainment, Horseshoe Las Vegas, and Racetrack Television Network (RTN) kicks off this Friday, March 15, and runs through Sunday, March 17, at the Horseshoe Las Vegas.

The first results from the 25th annual NTRA National Horseplayers Championship (NHC) are already in, and the $3 million handicapping tournament hasn’t even officially started yet.

Chris “The Bear” Fallica is a name that’s synonymous with sports betting. From his long tenure at ESPN on “College Gameday” to his more recent role as a featured wagering analyst on FOX Sports and the “Bear Bets Podcast,” Fallica is an absolute icon of American sports betting. But did you know that he’s also one of the most competitive horse bettors in the country?

This year, Fallica will again make the trek to Las Vegas for horse racing’s version of the World Series of Poker: The National Horseplayers Championship (NHC).

For the eighth 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 2024 Triple Crown and then continuing through the 2024 Breeders’ Cup World Championships.
