On Wednesday the NATIONAL RACE MASTERS STABLE sent out multiple winners at Belmont as John Conte went 3 for 4 and John DaSilva 2-for-3.

Conte opened the day by COLLECTING BIG TIME in Race 2 with Go Big Or Go Home, a $17.80 winner and the $99.50 Exacta and $283.00 Trifecta Boxes with Carmine's Honor and Flatexcel. Then in Race 3 he completed the $54.50 Daily Double with Barahin and the $17.20 Exacta with American Hero. John then ended the day with the Cold 9th Race Exacta with Party In The Sand $8.00 and Zecha - second.

JOHN IS RIGHT…

There are many categories of handicapping angles in play at this time of year in New York as summer turns to fall. Horses and horsemen who spent summer far and wide, not only at Saratoga but also at Monmouth and other tracks in the mid-Atlantic region, all return to Belmont for the Fall Championship Meet, which continues the East's highest-quality racing and wagering throughout this season until the end of October.

While it is impossible to mention every Belmont fall handicapping angle in one article, we can focus on some of the best, most effective, and perhaps the most overlooked angles…

When key 3-year old Stakes races are discussed it isn’t often that past graduates of the Grade 1 Pennsylvania Derby are recollected. And once again in 2018 the race is unlikely before, and after, to get the attention it deserves.

Part of that is due to the time of the season. The Triple Crown is long past, the Haskell has been run, the Travers has had its showcase and even scant interest in possible emerging runners from the Indiana Derby and Ohio Derby has come and gone

There is also an absence of big names. Justify is already getting some pointers from…

As the full stables continue to return from Saratoga and others ship in from around the country, the Belmont Fall Championship Meet is about to take off full stride…and if Sunday’s performance is any indication, so is 19 Year Veteran NY Post Picker John DaSilva.

Yesterday John TRIPLED UP at Belmont as he opened the day with the race 1-2 Daily Double, hit the Race 2 Exacta/Trifecta Cold and then added the Race 8 Exacta/Trifecta Combo to finish a big day with three winners from four released races.

Here we go again. Beginning this Friday, September 7, the Belmont Fall Championship Meet for 2018 gets underway with a 3 day weekend.

If history tells us one thing it tells us that this is not only opening weekend but a weekend that “Value Opportunity Horse Players” do not want to miss.

The reason is simple. With barns returning from the Saratoga Meet entering horses on these three opening weekend race cards there are a number of angles worth analyzing.

*Horses that woke up at the Spa after showing so-so form at…

New York racing once again is ready to move downstate for the start of the Belmont Park Fall Championship Meet, which begins on Friday, Sept. 7 and continues through to October 28.  With 44 stakes races worth over $10 million in purses, there are few race meets on the calendar as important as the Belmont Fall Championship Meet which contains all of New York's key prep races for the Breeders' Cup. Belmont Park also offers top-notch racing day-in-and-day-out all throughout the early fall season.

For the average horseplayer, Belmont can be a better meet than Saratoga, because it is easier to…

What a way to usher in the 3 Day Holiday Weekend and close out the 2018 Saratoga Meet.

Last year in the Grade 1 Woodward Stakes, the invincible Gun Runner chased all but 4 opponents away from the entry box and ran off to a 10 ½ length win at $2.70.

Oh what a difference a year makes. With arguably the two best older division horses sitting this one out (Diversify is training forward after winning the Whitney at Saratoga on August 4 and Accelerate just…
