1/ST BET Horse Racing Predictions:
We are excited to announce a renewed partnership with the fine folks and handicappers at 1/ST BET. Jeremy Plonk and Jeff Siegel will be sharing their expertise Wednesday-Sunday on a weekly basis to pass along some ponies that they like for races at various tracks around the country, including Churchill Downs.
For this Thursday, November 21 article, we’ve got “Plonk’s Picks” for racing, featuring racing from the historic Louisville, Kentucky track.
Churchill Downs | Race 4 | 2:27 pm ET
#1 Catching Heat (4-1 morning line odds) looks perfectly suited for the 1-turn mile distance, a trip that he handled with strong results twice this spring in New York. Trainer Steve Asmussen has conditioned this one at Turfway Park on the synthetic since coming to his barn last month. Could see a positive bounce from that. Win bet #1.
Churchill Downs | Race 7 | 3:55 pm ET
#4 Ez Tree Ates (3-1 morning line odds) has a pair of promising, even efforts around 1 turn and those often translate well the first time around 2 turns like this test. Bred to handle more distance as well. Should get a hustling ride from a good post position under Ricardo Santana Jr. Win bet #4.
