About GradeOneRacing.com

GradeOneRacing.com is a newly launched website which brings together the talents of nationally respected handicapper-author Steve Davidowitz, pedigree expert Lauren Stich; workout analyst Bruno DeJulio and a team of highly skilled professional handicappers, workout analysts and contest players.

Our Mission: To offer top notch handicapping information not readily available on the web, or anywhere else to supplement and add insight to past performances featured in Daily Racing Form, TrackMaster and Equibase track programs. This, to give serious and casual players powerful new tools to make better plays.

Welcome to GradeOneRacing.com!

A Note from our CEO and Editor in Chief, Steve Davidowitz

While this site is designed to provide valuable handicapping aids for the premier summer race meets leading to the Breeders' Cup, all of our information - including what is to come later in the year - will be broken into four distinct categories: Workout Analysis; Pedigree Analysis, Performance Notes and Handicapping Tournaments. To see the specific features of this site and what we will include when the site is fully completed in early 2011, please click the hyperlinks above and/or the tabs at the top of this homepage.

WorkoutsMorning Workout Analysis

Workouts
Our Workout Analysis section will focus on training moves at the nation’s premier race meets in Southern California, New York, Florida and Kentucky, along with seasonal stints in Louisiana and Illinois. Led by expert workout analyst Bruno DeJulio, our team of workout analysts will furnish insights that you will not find in the past performances, or scarcely anywhere else. We will have evaluations of 2 yr olds making their career debuts and/or stretching out in distance; absentees coming back from layoffs; Triple Crown prospects; turf horses; Graded stakes and Breeders' Cup prospects. This surely will help players make informed decisions every time they visit the site and will be especially useful for Pick Six players, contest players and those focusing on major meets.

PedPedigree Analysis

Pedigree Analysis
Our Pedigree Analysis section features tools and articles created by world renown expert Lauren Stich, author of "Pedigree Handicapping". Our data base contains pedigree profiles for Triple Crown horses and the 2 yr olds who raced at Keeneland in the spring, Belmont Park, Churchill Downs and Hollywood Park. There also in fact, extensive pedigree profiles for young horses set to race at Saratoga Del Mar and Monmouth Park this summer. In addition, you will find post race evaluations of key performances in 2 year old races; pedigree projections for Breeders’ Cup horses and a simple to use Sire Directory for different racing situations.

NotesPerformance Notes

Performance Notes
Our expert Performance Notes look beyond the typical trip notes found in Equibase generated result charts and past performances published in Daily Racing Form and other industry sources. Our Performance Notes are meant to supplement past performance material. We will cite prevailing, serious traffic issues; excellent and poor performances by heavily bet favorites; track biases and pace scenarios that contributed to or limited the horse's performance. Where relevant, we also will cite excellent or poor tactical decisions made by the trainer before the race or the jockey during the race. More Information...

Please note: ALL of our proprietary handicapping information will be easily accessed via a click of your mouse, through our user friendly software.

Handicapping Tournaments

Bankroll
Long term, our Handicapping Tournaments will include a variety of player friendly and Patented Formats, some of which have never been seen before. This site - here and now - will feature four FREE ENTRY contests with $27,500 in total FREE PRIZE MONEY as a sampling of what we intend. In fact, at the core of GradeOneRacing.com, is our desire to increase contest participation, provide lucrative prizes and to offer brand new formats that will excite horseplayers beyond anything ever attempted. The following is one such free contest on the GradeOneRacing.com schedule this summer and fall:
