Every Sunday Noel Michaels will provide free full-card picks for a one racecard in North America. A veteran handicapper and tournament-play pioneer, Michaels also writes a weekly “Weekend Winners” blog for America’s Best Racing with a focus on key stakes races at marquee tracks. This feature will be straight-forward: full-card picks for one Sunday slate of races of his choosing.

Horse racing fans get to unwrap one final Christmas gift every year on Dec. 26 when the southern California winter racing season celebrates its traditional day-after-Christmas opening day at Santa Anita Park. The date marks the start of a new meet – called the Classic Meet – and kicks off one of the country’s premier annual winter racing seasons.

Welcome to Noel Michaels’ Weekend Winners, the place to go for weekend best bets and spot plays from veteran handicapper and tournament-play pioneer Noel Michaels. Check back every week for a couple of highlighted selections designed to help you cash a few bets and make some money.
