  • Mother Goose (G2): Comfort Food for Kentucky Oaks Losers? Our Bold Analysis of Probables (S2Ep20)
    Quickie picks as we survey the probable field for Saturday, June 25th’s Mother Goose, a G2 stakes race at Belmont for 3 year-old fillies at 1 & 1/16 miles on the dirt (as God intended).
    This may be the comfort food and stretchy pants of the racing weekend, but we don’t have time for anything else, so here goes!
    4:28 Weej is annoyed by Radio Days, who annoys with annoyances.
    (Echo Zulu casts a looong shadow over this motley field.)
    5:41 We both 💕 the adorable Juju’s Map, a favorite since the Breeders Cup Juvenile Fillies. In good health, Brad Cox’s filly is best in class and at this length, we think.
    9:04 Chad Brown’s Gerrymandered might be mis-matched, since she’s never competed at this length. Is this an experiment?
    10:55 Shahama. How can we compare her when all the winning was in the UAE?
    12:12 Venti Valentine. Stinktastic, or just twice as bad as Shahama using horse algebra?
    13:21 Favor is another Pletcher horse, whose development arc is mysterious. We love to see a spark here, but…
    15:25 Nostalgic is our second favorite for this race, should she (or any of the others mentioned) actually be in it come Saturday. 😂 Yes, she crapped a diaperload in the Oaks, but we still think she’s got promise.
    16:40 République, the last probable from Saffie Joseph, is lightly raced. Weej thinks there’s possible speed. Trixie can be convinced she’s a hidden treasure at 50-1.
    We love making jokes, but love 🐴 more. We encourage and support widespread reform with regard to equine medications, standards of care, and treatment during and after thoroughbred racing careers. We desire sparkling ethics, so we can enjoy the sport happily and encourage others to become fans, too!
    HAPPY RACING, YA’LL!

  • Belmont Afterglow: Great Race Days Produce Gloating, Hindsight, and Pillow Talk (S2Ep19)
    We ADORED the Belmont Days of racing last Friday and Saturday! Maybe our favorite race cards of the year! Timestamps follow as always.
    Forget the complaints about small fields, there were almost no undercards, the calliber of horses and races were so good!
    3:03 Friday’s Race 9, the True North G2 showed what a baller (and a boy) Jackie’s Warrior is.
    5:15 Friday’s Race 10, the New York G1, had 4 Chad Brown entries, including the great Bleecker Street, Family Way (an Uncle Mo kid) and Flighty Lady, who came in for Trixie.
    8:15 Saturday’s Race 2 was an allowance where Weej won with Uncle Moonlight, progeny of… who else?!
    8:43 R3, the Acorn G1, ended up with the 4 horses of the Apocolaypse after Echo Zulu’s late scratch. Matareya dominated.
    10:21 The Just a Game G1 turf, R4, offered a nice story for Peter Brant, owner of Just a Game,and now, of winner Regal Glory.
    12:51 R5 was the Brooklyn G2, which Fearless won for Weej.
    13:32 R6, the Woody Stephens G1 crowned Jack Christopher as a Elite 👑 LEGEND. Perhaps his between-race breaks are to return to his home planet or have a complete replacement of his cybernetic organs.
    16:14 R7, The Ogden Phipps, was a pace meltdown for Letruska and Search Results. Shaking our heads at Ortiz bros. Clairiere stalked and walked into the Breeeders Cup Distaff with her Win. Finally Steve Assmussen can smile again 😂
    19:20 Jaipur G1 turf was Race 8. Casa Creed won and gets a free pass to the Breeders Cup Turf Sprint.
    20:38 In Race 9, the Metropolitan Mile, speedball Flightline dazzled with his quality, of course! 🔥❤️‍🔥 He’s invited to the BC Dirt Mile, can’t wait!
    22:18 Tribhuvan won the Manhattan G1, Race 10, and Weej got paid!
    23:57 The main event was R11, the Belmont Stakes, and Mo Donegal, who was the champion of our 💕won in convincing fashion! Filly Nest also impressed us. Skippylongstocking ITM again! Could Rich Strike be heading for snippage?
    31:13 Royal Ascot is next week, We still have Japan’s Mermaid and Unicorn, and Belmont’s Mother Goose in June. Then, in July, Saratoga and Del Mar re-open! Summer racing is the ballz.
    We love making jokes, but love 🐴 more. We encourage and support widespread reform with regard to equine medications, standards of care, and treatment during and after thoroughbred racing careers. We desire sparkling ethics, so we can enjoy the sport happily and encourage others to become fans, too!

    50:27 Skippy Longstocking (Trixie’s still annoyed after Preakness)

    56:13 We are dying to see Mo Donegal get a huge WIN— we think he deserves it.

  • Preakness and BES Race Aftermath with Triumphs and Tears (S2Ep17)
    How’d our picks fare in the Preakness and Black-eyed Susan Stakes? Weeeeellll… Timestamps follow as always!
    NOTE: If you’re a beginner or casual horse racing fan who’d like to learn more, we’ve got the BASICS of Triple Crown races and wagering on three year-olds in a fun, illustrated conversation. https://youtu.be/xv14DhiF7RY
    Welcome new listeners and subscribers! Feel free to drop a poop emoji in the comments whenever you’re so inclined.
    2:12 The Black-eyed Susan race hurt Weej like an unexpected root canal, seriously…but that’s dedication!
    3:52 BES recap analysis and reactions (ok, tears!)
    4:39 Weej’s official Missy Greer misery lap. Enjoy!
    7:12 Midnight Stroll annoyed by Candy Light the whole race.
    7:38 Adare Manor’s
    8:05 Credit to Radio Days—who despises us—but who Joel Rosario rode well to Show.
    9:17 Surprise No-Shows Luna Belle and Distinctlypossible
    10:02 Interstatedaydream, Brad Cox’s winning filly, showed another gear
    11:07 Onto the Preakness!
    11:31 Armagnac faded. Early Voting WON.
    11:50 Skippylongstocking was an outside menace to Epicenter, who came from way back to Place.
    14:11 Derby winner Rich Strike heads to the Belmont Stakes. Fenwick WHO?!
    15:11 Creative Minister Showed. After dissing, Trixie bet him and her WPS, Exacta, and Trifecta paid off!
    17:21 Secret Oath’s 4th place finish was an emotional loss for Weej.
    18:11 Is Epicenter the real deal or not good enough? Point-counterpoint!
    20:22 Good odds with sparse info on a lightly-raced horse signal what insiders know.
    21:32 Who’s Out and Who’s in for the Belmont—Mo Donegal!
    22:32 Memorial Weekend Races include Gamely G1 at Santa Anita with filly Going to Vegas.
    23:09 More teensy, unconfirmed fields (!) at SA for Hollywood Gold Cup G1 and Shoemaker Mile G1, a Breeder’s Cup Win and You’re In
    25:54 Weekend’s slate of Lone Star Million races include the fabulously-named Ouija Board Distaff.
    28:38 As sure as sun and rain, there will be outrages and heartbreaks before the Belmont. It’s horse racing.
    We love making jokes, but love 🐴 more. We encourage and support widespread reform with regard to equine medications, standards of care, and treatment during and after thoroughbred racing careers.

    Our Picks for the Preakness and the Black-eyed Susan Stakes! Timestamps with each horse’s name in the post order.
    NOTE: If you’re a beginner or casual horse racing fan who’d like to learn more, we’ve got the BASICS of Triple Crown races and wagering on three year-olds in a fun, illustrated conversation. https://youtu.be/xv14DhiF7RY
    We begin with the girls, 13 fillies for Friday’s Black-eyed Susan:
    2:38 Divine Huntress 1): Prat questions, post advantage
    4:01 Missy Greer 2): Weej sees Surprise Potential!
    5:07 Miss Yearwood 3): Same as Missy, but better, Trixie wonders?
    6:57 Midnight Stroll 4): Rising Interest
    7:53 Beguine 5): Needs to refresh earlier spark
    8:58 Luna Belle 6): Weej really likes this fave. Trixie says 💩.

    12:53 Candy Light 8): Ummmm

    22:36 Simplification 1): Desperate jockey change?
    23:51 Creative Minister 2): eh
    24:52 Fenwick 3): A 50/1 Show Baby?
    Owners were unsatisfied, say jock held back in the Blue Grass G1. https://www.horseracingnation.com/news/Preakness_2022_Maiden_winner_Fenwick_is_a_late_entrant_123
    We shall see…
    26:32 Secret Oath 4): We 💕 this filly, it is known! How will herd dynamics play out against the boys (again)?
    29:09 Early Voting 5): In Trixie’s top 3. Phenomenal speed in the freakfest Wood Memorial G2. Watch here https://youtu.be/qrl3GRH5-wE
    32:24 Happy Jack 6): He tra-la-las into the money, sometimes.
    33:56 Armagnac 7): Santa Anita’s inadequate preparation
    36:38 Epicenter 8): Trixie adores this dominant colt. Weej is OVER him.💩
    39:17 Skippylongstocking 9): Another great name, but….
    We love making jokes, but love 🐴 more. We encourage and support widespread reform with regard to equine medications, standards of care, and treatment during and after thoroughbred racing careers.

  • Refresh the Buzz! Gloating, FanGurling, & Dissecting the Kentucky Derby and Oaks (S2Ep15)
    Trixie and Weej are still buzzing from the Kentucky Oaks and Derby! We will gloat about our successes and dissect our failures.
    NOTE: If you’re a beginner or newbie who’d like to learn the basics of Triple Crown races and wagering on three year-olds before the upcoming Preakness and Belmont stakes, please check out this fun, illustrated conversation. https://youtu.be/xv14DhiF7RY
    1:44 Kentucky Oaks Reaction and Analysis
    2:36 Secret Oath Rolls ‘Em and Smokes ‘Em, Decisively!
    3:23 Herd Dynamics Mattered!
    4:20 The Arkansas Derby indicated greatness to us
    5:00 Chewing up the field, one-by-one for half the race
    6:25 Echo Zulu, Nest, and rest of the fillies
    6:55 Queen of the Show (Trixie) had called out Desert Dawn as a possible Long-Shot to finish in the money, and she did!
    8:39 Where was Kathleen O.?!
    9:05 The Joy of Being Right is Another Delight of Horse Racing!
    10:15 Onto the Feel-Good Kentucky Derby Story!
    10:30 The Freakfest of 20 Horses is always a mad spectacle
    11:19 Last minute entry breaks the record for longest-odd winner. Even his trainer, Eric Reed, understood the long odds on paper
    13:00 Rich Strike loves the rail and so does his jockey, Sonny Leon. Ran from the 20th post, as outside as possible
    15:20 Herd Dynamics also visibly AT PLAY during the Derby
    16:10 Leon’s Mid-race zigzagging. Fast starting pace cleared an inside lane. Rich Strike had enough length to close the deal and then some.
    17:40 The horse had no history with the rest of the herd to overcome.
    18:10 Rich Strike was savaging his lead pony like a crazy ass afterward—which we dearly hoped was only nerves— Yay, clean drug tests affirm he’s just nuts 🤣
    19:45 Most people were FINE with losing personal bets in favor of witnessing an amazing Derby and historic outcome! The sport needed it!
    20:44 The unsung-till-now trainer and owner and jockey have fascinating stories following some hard knocks.
    22:30 Eric Reed picked up this former claimer, having correctly assessed him as a dirt, not turf, colt
    22:52 Trixie, the Queen of the Show Bet, also put some on Rich Strike and got PAID!
    23:58 Weej is tickled that “fun factors” of betting worked better than studying prep races for months
    24:50 The importance of the Crazy Factor! (R.I.P. Midnight Bourbon.)
    26:35 Great for occasional fans to see that genuine outsiders can prevail!
    27:34 What about Sore Losers?!
    28:00 We bet on Epicenter to Win and he Placed. Still a Great horse!
    29:16 Rights will be negotiated. People will want to relive this in print or on screen.
    30:50 Weej couldn’t even sleep after the excitement of the Oaks.
    31:08 Yes, Show Bets can pay. This Derby, a $2 bet paid out about $30.
    32:00 Weej wasn’t ever totally settled with her Derby bets. Trixie ended up accumulating a combo of 9 different horses picked to win—none did!
    33:15 After next week’s Preakness draw, we’ll discuss that race & the fillies’ Black-eyed Susan on May 20th/21st at Pimlico in Maryland.
    33:48 Recapping Taiba’s, Messier’s, TiztheBomb’s, and White Abarrio’s finishes and prospective futures.
    35:20 Can Rich Strike win the Preakness? Could Secret Oath?
    35:55 The Quick Tips video for Derby Beginners STILL APPLIES to the upcoming Preakness and Belmont.Be Better Informed! Have More Fun! (Link at Top)

    15:03 Epicenter
    16:22 Summer Is Tomorrow
    16:51 Smile Happy
    17:24 Messier
    18:19 Crown Pride (During 2021, Weej and Trixie swore they’d eat their shirts or ascots if Japan’s France Go De Ina won the Derby. Didn’t happen then, and we’re not sure it will now either. We love the Japan horses. SOON.)

  • Quick Tips for your First Kentucky Derby (Special Edition for New Fans)
    The fully-illustrated version of this conversation on our YouTube channel of the same name has loads of fun, helpful graphics, so go check it out if something’s unclear! https://youtu.be/xv14DhiF7RY America's oldest sporting event is the most prestigious thoroughbred horse race in the world. We made this crash course to help brand new fans or anyone attending a Derby Day event who wants a little handholding. Here are the topics we cover:
    00:28 Nicknames for the race
    1:06 Who started it? Why and When?
    3:54 How old are the horses? What's the difference between the Kentucky Derby and Oaks?
    4:44 How do horses get entered into the Derby?
    6:30 How can you pick a winning horse?
    8:00 What's meant by "handicapping" and what should you consider?
    8:15 Length of track and post position
    9:30 Examining past performances of horses (You don't have to torment yourself with racing forms if you're a newbie.)
    12:10 Learning from the research/analysis of others (You can gather enough to be dangerous or have a nice conversation!)
    14:40 Weather considerations
    15:10 What can you learn by observing the pre-race Post Parade?
    18:40 How are betting odds written and what do they mean? How do long or short, high or low odds convey bettors' views and payout amounts?
    23:30 How do odds look on the racetrack's tote board?
    24:40 Explaining Straight Bets for Win, Place, and Show, meaning 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishers. Win bets always pay best, but are riskier than Place and Show bets.
    26:25 Calculating return with a simple win example. In horseracing, when you win a bet, the outlay (price) of that bet is returned to you along with your winnings to add up to your total payout.
    28:53 Betting "Across the Board" combines 3 straight bets into a popular combo, also shown as WPS (Win-Place-Show) or W/P/S. This can dilute your risk and enhance your payout if you select well.
    31:30 Bettors get rewarded, so to speak, for the degree of difficulty required in choosing the winner(s).
    32:35 Where to place wagers, provided that 1) you are of legal age and 2) such gambling is legal where you are located.
    36:30 Don't forget the rest of the day's races, the undercard. Former Derby and Oaks contenders get faster as they mature, peaking at 4 to 5 years of age.
    38:45 The Triple Crown is composed of 3 races which begin with the Kentucky Derby, followed by The Preakness, and then The Belmont Stakes. To win any of them signals greatness, but the champion who sweeps all three is a rare and unforgettable champion.
    Hope you enjoyed this quick and dirty speedrun through the Kentucky Derby and Triple Crown. Please LIKE, COMMENT, and SUBSCRIBE if you did, and Happy Racing, Ya'll!

  • Spring Bouquet of 6 Prep Races + Epicenter, Japan’s Contender, BB Legal Update (S2Ep13)
    00:27 Welcome New Listeners and Subscribers! Use the TIMESTAMPS which are always in the description and pinned FIRST COMMENT to navigate the topics in the episode.
    We have some news items plus 6 Kentucky Derby and Kentucky Oaks point-earning preps races to cover, so on we go!
    1:30 Epicenter looked dominant in his Louisiana Derby win! Probably Kentucky Derby shortlist for Trixie, possibly No. 1 fave for Weej.
    2:24 The Japan entry into the Derby will be Crown Pride, a beauty—yes, it matters! This year, we will NOT be betting against Japan and risking shirt-eating or ascot-noshing.
    4:40 Trixie is bugged by the Jeff Ruby “Steaks.” It’s cute, but is a pain in her Felix Unger.
    6:00 Florida Derby at Gulfstream. We ADORE Classic Causeway, consider Simplification and White Abarrio, and Weej touts the Pletcher/Saez entrant and recent maiden Charge It. Watch it yourself!
    https://youtu.be/M4RYCTHuqj0
    10:30 In the Gulfstream Park Oaks, Weej thinks Kathleen O. Will wipe up the other fillies. Trixie’s bother by Goddess of Fire’s inconsistency (and lack of wins) and is interested in recent maiden Catiche as an outside oddball choice.
    13:09 Jeff Ruby Steaks G3 at Turfway Park on synthetic. Blackadder has moved from Baffert’s stables to Brisette’s, which seems wise since he’s already in the Preakness. Tiz the Bomb is the one to beat and the rest of the field is pale by comparison. The Bourbonette Oaks, with no offense intended, is a bit of a succotash of fillies.
    18:19 The biggest story is the weekend’s Arkansas Derby, starring Secret Oath, the filly who will run against the boys and test her mettle, and Un Ojo, the one-eyed favorite of fans and bettors alike after winning the Rebel at 75-1!
    21:59 The Fantasy Stakes at Oak Lawn will earn Oaks points for the rest of the fillies. Eda, still under Baffert’s nameplate, will be a no-show, probably to run in the Santa Anita Oaks—where she can’t earn qualification points either! This race, we’re both all in for Bubble Rock, the Chad Brown horse who looked sweet and made us money in the Cincinnati!
    26:33 Bob Baffert is losing time in legal wrangling with both the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission (KHRC) who are suspending him for 90 days and with Churchill Downs, who, as property owners, have banned him for 2 years.
    https://www.thoroughbreddailynews.com/one-step-forward-one-back-in-bafferts-derby-driven-legal-odyssey/

    0:25 We’ve been working like busy (chipper) beavers on 33xpl’s NEW FAN ACADEMY, so head over to our website and leave your e-mail to be notified when it goes live in April! *squeeee*
    1:15 Dubai World Cup Results. Hot Rod Charlie Places—of course! Country Grammer, a Baffert horse, wins over serious Japanese entrants Life is Good and Chuwa Wizard, but more on his current sitch later in the episode.
    3:50 Fair Grounds Meet is ending with the 100-pt Kentucky Derby prep race, Race 12, the Louisiana Derby (G2, $1M purse) and Race 11, the Fair Grounds Oaks for the girls (G2, $400k purse).
    4:21 For the Oaks, we both LOVE Echo Zulu, but Trixie likes TurnerLoose to Place and Weej is picking Favor. Someone’s gotta come in second after all!
    6:22 For the Louisiana Derby, we LOVE Epicenter, maybe Call Me Midnight to Zacta-macta, and then Trixie likes Zozos as an added option and Weej is with Rattle N Roll on final probation.
    Paco Lopez’s suspension for clipping, creating disaster for Galt and High Oak while he was aboard In Due Time in the Fountain of Youth Stakes.

    9:15 Going To Vegas, which Weej part owns through My Racehorse, is in a 1/4 mile turf Race 7 today at Santa Anita on the turf. We ADORE her!
    10:27 Woodbine Mohawk, currently running harness races, has a late-night MANDATORY PAYOUT for Race 11 SuperHi5 (pick the finishing order for the first 5 horses). The minimum bet is 20 cents, the take-out is a bettor-friendly 15%, and a big carryover means the pool is already over half a million Canadian dollars, so over $400k USD and it will grow! The race goes off at 11:10 pm EDT if you want a cheap chance at a nice pool.
    Trixie IS the Lazy Handicapper, always preferring to do one race over multi-race plays.
    13:32 Scandal of the WEEK: Trainer Bob Baffert’s potential Derby 3 year-olds are finally moving! Well, 4 of them, including the magnificent Messier.

    Nice finally to see actual consequences after the awful tragedy of Medina Spirit. We also muse: Is Corniche injured? Is Newgrange not considered a contender? The required removal of Baffert’s signage at the Santa Anita stables had to hurt—we’re okay with it 🤣😂
    26:06 Head over to our website to learn more about the NEW FAN ACADEMY, of which we will discuss so much more in the very near future!
    We love making jokes, but love 🐴 more. We encourage and support widespread reform with regard to equine medications, standards of care, and treatment during and after thoroughbred racing careers. We desire sparkling ethics, so we can enjoy the sport happily and encourage others to become fans, too!
