Betting on Longshots Part 2: Three-Year-Olds

This is part two in a four-part series discussing and helping the reader to understand value in different types of races. For the purpose of the article, the focus is on California racetracks.

The 2005 Kentucky Derby (gr. I) will always be remembered as one of the great upsets of all time: 50 – 1 longshot Giacomo stormed home from the back of the pack to score a dramatic victory on the wire. Although there were many factors playing into that win - the rapid pace falling apart, the sub-par quality of the field aside from Afleet Alex, etc. – some astute handicappers hit home with the $102 payout, the second-largest in Derby history. Although hindsight is 20/20, Giacomo definitely fit as a contender, and as a handicapper, it is your job to catch those longshots.
