Friday’s (5-17-2014) Power Page and KHSS for Belmont and Santa Anita are ready for download…

The Preakness Power Page is the 2nd page of either the Belmont or Santa Anita Power Page’s.  There is no need to make a separate purchase.  However, the Preakness is only a part of the Power Page’s and not part of the KHSS…

 

The Preakness offers a difficult handicapping situation, but an easy handicapping prop.  To the way I handicap, California Chrome should be wagered down to about 3/5 or even as low as 1/2.  So you could make an argument that if you are able to get 6/5 you are earning value.  I suppose that’s true, but unfortunately, if you  lose you will have to endure another 18 good ODDS-ON favorites in the Preakness to break even, so  you might have to live another 50 years.   The joy of handicapping and the pleasure we all get in watching a horse accomplish lofty goals is really at the core of this Preakness for me.   I just cannot find it in my game plan to bet CC at Even Money or less, even though we might be able to squeeze a touch of juice out of this betting lemon.

So this pretty much puts you into playing exotics – now here we have some really interesting ideas.  So please pick up your Power Page, in this edition, I have suggested an odds line – which added up to approximately 115 points (123 is optimal) so you have a good betting guideline… Good luck on you handicapping ….  This may be a Preakness to remember, so let’s all enjoy …
