Ken the handicapper singles the 6/5 favorite in the first leg of his multi race wager at Tampa. Guess who ran out.

It’s like watching the stooges trying to be plumbers. Ken singles the 1 in the second race to start the pic 4. More comedy as the horse doesn’t get it done. Entertaining.

Ken put out a $27 pick 5 ticket at Gulfstream with all chalk for the exception of 1 long shot going 4 deep in the last leg. Wouldn’t you know it, out after the first leg.

Are we really going to sit here and continue to tear the guy apart on a daily basis?

I take it you guys don't actually bet real money if you have the time to do this

Others have said he’s there to entertain. I’m allowing Ken to entertain me.

i am not going to knock a guy for doing his job, but i am going to praise someone for going above the call of duty.

the other night i was playing THE MOUNTAIN, listening to Mark like i always do (i don't ever play his selections, even though they are real good at times). he finishes off his analysis and goes off the air in something like the 3rd race. he comes back on the air and lets his listeners know that the short-priced favorite to the race is first-time bandages. i had played the horse $50 wp and didn't notice the front raps. i canceled my bet and watched the horse run a miserable 3rd. i felt like he gave me $100 and i really appreciate it because in this game nobody gives away anything.

The only time I would let a host's picks influence my wagers was when they had races with first timers in it in a pick 3-6 sequence at Los Alamitos. I was all ears when Les Onaka and Ed Burghart were talking. I would usually just add their picks to mine if we disagreed.

Lol. He can go on and on and on and on and on and on about a race. If I'm watching I mute.

We're spoiled by the on air talent who has horseplaying insight, is diligent, and loves the game. Amazingly there are at least a few who are members here at PA that come to mind.

Rudolph is still smelling his Giacomo farts...
Yea, no cap, I Honestly don't watch enough TVG/Fanduel to critique their talent.
It was on once in a while in the hospital. Saw a lot of quick forced multis. Sometimes looked like they tried to spread early and single late to keep a ticket alive and appear affordable.
