all in Gambling

The $300,00, Grade 1 Runhappy Del Mar Futurity has a rich history an important summer race for 2-year-olds that has served as a springboard for many budding stars, and the seven-furlong race has been especially significant in recent years.

The Breeders’ Cup Challenge Series continues on Saturday with a deep and competitive renewal of the $1 million, Grade 2 FanDuel Turf Sprint Stakes at Kentucky Downs.

The Grade 2, $1 million Kentucky Turf Cup Stakes drew a full field of 12, plus one also-eligible entrant, all vying to win an automatic entry into the Longines Breeders’ Cup Turf in November.

Once the starting gate opens in a horse race, the betting tickets are pulled out and the competition among gamblers begins. In those exciting moments, your mind is racing with the possibility that your chosen horses will win.

Was placing a parlay bet better than a wager on five picks? Sweat beads build on your forehead, your heart is pounding in your chest, and you second guess each decision as the race nears its end.

Our #Pedigeek “Term of the Week” is:

Black-type

When we use the term black-type when referring to a horse’s pedigree, we are generally talking about the relatives produced by the horse’s female family who have won or run second or third in a stakes race. A stakes winner will be notated in a pedigree by having their name completely capitalized and in bold font. A horse who has run second or third will have only the first letters of their name capitalized, but still be listed in bold.
