Only a 100% effort is needed, please don’t give me more!
Often times you’ll hear an athlete, coach or inspirational speaker talk about giving 110% or if they are really excited 200%. We know they aren’t math majors and you can’t give more than 100%, but if you are a handicapper never, ever in a million years give an opinion that is greater than 100%. Un... Read More |

| Do you ever wonder what happens to the Thoroughbred racing horses once their racing days are over? Several years ago I personally met some of the people who took care of some of these horses.

KENTUCK DERBY Future Pool Pitfalls Part III Even at double their odds it is still a big risk, because for any horse to even get to the derby should be 10-1 in February. The

3-year-olds. Looking at the nominations... Read More |
