Dale JR did more for horse racing in this podcast than anybody in the last five years.
He raved about how much fun the Derby was and how much he got into the racing and horses.

It's refreshing having somebody making picks like Olczyk that you know beyond a doubt is actually making his own bets on the race. Nothing was funnier than (I think) Matt Carothers giving out a huge horizontal on tvg a few years ago and it turns out he didn't bet it. So he'll tell you to bet it, but he wouldnt

i dont think its reasonable to think that every ticket TVG asks a player to put together means it must be played by the employee.
Matt is a pretty serious player and avid better. Kurt Hoover is a big player as well.

Yes, Eddie is great. I suspected that he'd be hard to beat in this poll, after all, he is one of us.

TVG is a betting service which wants its viewers to bet every race and every exotic. It's on-air personalities may conclude that some bets are not worth making but be required to push them anyway. "I'm passing the late pick 4" are words never heard on TVG.

I like a jockey's perspective and anyone that's good with on track physicality from race to race. I want someone that's going to bring something to the table that I can't.
