Results for 10/8/16 -- HANDICAPPING HEROES

The Handicappers had mixed success at Keeneland in Saturday's Card...a tough card, indeed, that provided a couple of upsets but great racing! 

SCOTT HARRIS provided 16 horses he thought might hit the board. Out of those, six hit the board for a 37% in the money percentage. Scott had one winner, three seconds and two thirds. He had a huge eighth race, where he gave out the exacta and trifecta. Those combinations paid well...over $1800 on a $2 wager. His best bet (Tepin) failed to win, though, his value play Wild Shot ran third and his top jockey for the sequence Julian Leparoux had one win. 

Scott finishes with 26 points on the day...good enough to win the contest.

PAULIE offered four horses he thought could win. They didn't. His best bet was Tepin...who wasn't. Wild Shot, his value play, ran third and his top jock...Jose Ortiz didn't have a winner in the four race sequence.

Guest handicapper Professor Bicker dissected the eighth race to try and provide a nice payout. The "Bicker Sticker" was a  six horse rambling dialogue prediction/combination that did include the winner (Classic Empire) but nothing else. We'll probably have him back, though...it's sparkling commentary and he comes with his own background spiritual singer and bartender...

In the race for the crown....after two weeks, Archie holds a 55 to 50 lead over Scott.
