This week we decided to try something different. The Ballerina is one of the best wagering races on The Travers Day card in my view. As some of you know, at Past the Wire we developed our own AI model, or App if you will that is based on Big Race Jim Gazzale’s and my handicapping methods. Last week it went 7 for 7 on Favorites to Fade. This week as opposed to my weekly column, we decided to share The Riders Up App’s analysis of the race. It is more than suggested wagers, it is a deep dive high level breakdown. There are details in the report you may want to bet, or may want to bet against. Of course the suggested wagers are always an option. Have a great Travers Day!
