all in Triple Crown

Churchill Downs has officially rebranded Wednesday of Kentucky Derby week to be known as “Winsday: Great Thrills for the Greater Good presented by Resolute Racing.” In partnership with the Community Foundation of Louisville, “Winsday” will be a special day dedicated to supporting local nonprofit organizations and spotlighting their invaluable contributions to the Kentuckiana community.

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.”

Belair Stud had dominated the sport of horse racing in the 1930s, the distinctive white with red spots a fixture in the winner’s circles of the Triple Crown races in multiple years. By the 1940s, though, the tide was turning toward a different set of silks, the immortal Devil red and blue of Calumet Farm.

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.

Jayson Werth’s playing days in Major League Baseball might be over, but he may still have the ability to impact gameplay on the field.

The former outfielder was invited to be a spring-training guest coach March 14-15 for the Washington Nationals, a team for which he played the last seven seasons of a 15-year career. Manager Dave Martinez asked Werth to speak to the young team.
