Kentucky Derby 2025 points preps at Aqueduct, Gulfstream Park and Santa
Anita have the floor this week on the Ron Flatter Racing Pod.
From California, longtime horse owner and public handicapper Jon
Lindo offers his thoughts about north-state racing coming to an end, decoupling
proposals in Florida and Virginia and small fields for stakes this weekend at
Santa Anita. He also previews the Robert B. Lewis, one of Saturday’s Derby points
preps.
Co-owner Ramiro Restrepo, who won the Kentucky Derby two years ago
with Mage, is back with Ferocious, the favorite to win the Grade 3 Holy Bull,
the latest Gulfstream Park stop on the road to Louisville.
Ed DeRosa handicaps weekend races, including the Bob Lewis, the Holy
Bull and the Withers at Aqueduct. Each will be worth 20 Derby qualifying points
to the winner.
Co-host John Cherwa helps to go over listener and reader feedback,
much of which was in response to the Eclipse Awards last week in Florida.

available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well
