S7E36: Belmont Stakes hare-core handicappers
About this episode
Deep analysis of every horse in Belmont Stakes 2024 is ready to hear now with the hard-core handicappers pop-up episode of the Ron Flatter Racing Pod.
Horse Racing Nation handicappers Mark Midland and Ed DeRosa in Kentucky are joined by DraftKings Sportsbook director Johnny Avello in Las Vegas. They go through the entire field from 1 to 10.
They will consider whether to buy or sell Kentucky Derby runner-up Sierra Leone. They must decide whether Mystik Dan and Seize the Grey are potential overlays despite winning the first two Triple Crown races. They also size up Mindframe, who is 2-for-2 with eye-popping wins but without stakes experience coming into this $2 million classic.
The handicappers also will offer a thumbnail look at the Grade 1 Met Mile, which shapes up as a showdown between White Abarrio and National Treasure but could carry value with one of the other four entrants looking for an upset.
The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com. This pop-up and the regular Friday episode are sponsored by Xpressbet.
