If anyone has online account Eddie Olczyk, the horse racing/hockey analyst is posting his picks on twitter. I took his advise and won $200 betting $30 on the 7th race. I hope American Pharoah comes in at best 3rd with Frosted and Materiality, first and second.
not bad for free advise ..

He gave four horses for the 8th and the first .. I did a tri box on the 4 and lost

He's good at picking horses. A few years ago he bet $186 on a Pick 6 ticket at Hollywood Park and won $497,000

Eddie knows his stuff.

What'd you play on the Belmont.

AP was dominant! Very cool to see today.

Are you saving that ticket?
I hit the trifecta for $54 but I would have done better with other combos. I'm just glad the 1 horse got beat for third. Eddie gives good free advise. I came out about $50 ahead. I need to quit boxing trifectas. If I would just pound his picks across the board it would have been a nice day.

I'm heading back up there tomorrow and will ask for a copy of the payouts for the race.... I'll take that and the ticket and frame it and hope to get Victor Espinoza to sign it at the upcoming Del Mar meet...

Eddie suggested betting Frosted across the board. He came in 2nd so that and 3rd would have paid. I did take his advice and boxed 6,5,7 & 8 but since 5 won it didn't pay much.

It was a great run by American Pharoah. Wall Street Journal put this years race up against the 1973 run by Secretartiat and you can see them side by side ... http://www.wsj.com/video/american-pharoah-vs-secretariat-who-would-win/513B9634-15E8-4108-B3F7-DEB54AF09F4B.html
There were only 5 horses in the 1973 race
