S5E17: Michael, Maven and Golden Gate

Is horse racing beyond repair? Two prominent bettors offer their answers on this week’s episode of the Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Newly inducted into the National Horseplayers Championship Hall of Fame, Michael Beychok and David Gutfreund raise issues and offer some solutions. On the road to the Kentucky Derby, top Golden Gate Fields trainer Jonathan Wong previews this weekend’s El Camino Real Derby. Horse Racing Nation’s Sara Elbadwi handicaps that race and the Sam F. Davis Stakes at Tampa Bay Downs. There also is a recap of the Eclipse Awards ceremony at Santa Anita. The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Google, Spotify and Stitcher as well as HorseRacingNation.com.
