Its time for the fall "Pick the Ponies" horse handicapping tournament at the LVH (formerly the Las Vegas Hilton). Pick the Ponies XLVIII is held the same week as the Breeders Cup so you will get to watch and bet the 5 Friday Breeders Cup Races (schedule HERE) while competing for your share of the prize pool listed below.Pick the Ponies is rated as my “BEST handicapping for a number of reasons:
- Contest is capped at 200 entrants
- Assigned Seating in the Worlds Largest Race & Sports Book not a hotel ballroom
- Multiple big-screens, including a massive 15' x 20' screen & individual monitors at each seat
- Best & Friendliest race book staff in Vegas
- Cocktail reception on Tuesday
- Special Hotel Room Rates
- Free Buffet @ Hilton Buffet next to Sports Book
- Vegas Weather is great in early November
I have written a number of blog entries describing the details of this tournament and some tips on how I handicap for this tournament, so take a look at some of my older posts.
