And they have a Pick 4 someplace else the next race. I watched one night and they rolled off about $1000 in Pick 4 tickets and never hit one. It's an ADW shill.

Paul Lo Duca was traded for Hee-seop Choi. And I'm going to play a pick 4 on his advice ? He spent 10 years in the minor leagues for god sake. He was an All-Star, but they have to pick somebody from every team. By his last year even pitchers were stealing on him. He may hold the record still for most stolen bases vs. a team.

He's ĺike this great baseball player. He got traded for Hee-seop Choi for gad sakes.

Apparently he's not playing any of his tickets because by now he'd be flat broke and standing outside the track with a paper cup.

If you like LoDuca or not as a baseball player or handicapper, you cant fault him for doing what he obviously loves. "They" hired him, he has gotten better by investing in learning more and he certainly bets and is part of sport.

I would rather listen to someone who loves the game bets and is vested then many others. Look I get he isnt the best and TVG is awful 90% of the time, hopefully "they" are watching NYRA SPA Live and are realizing what players want and need. That said Saratoga live and for that matter the entire NYRA circuit has fairly unique advantages that allow it MUCH better programming.
How do you make a MDN 5 at Penn Nat interesting..You dont you show the race timely offer a good platform to wager on it and move on.

TVG did a MUCH better job with Pac Classic coverage IMO "they" have been watching NYRA and learned a bunch.

I haven't watched every day this summer but from the days I have watched Lo Duca has been their best handicapper.

If I recall he's had a few top choices at prices and touted exactas.

And overall he's positive about the sport and it seems like he is trying.

Schrupp on the otherhand is bitter, negative, and often jaded and it seems like he just picks a longshot to be contrarian in spite of how ridiculous he looks after the fact.

They don't need that. He's been there far too long. At the very least he should be demoted to B team.
