  • Farewell

    I’ve been listening to you, Scott and Chris, for a very long time, and it’s truly sad to hear that you’ll no longer be doing the podcast. You’ve both been fantastic — this has been the only horse racing podcast I’ve followed, and your guests were always top-notch. You two will be greatly missed. Wishing you both the very best of luck and every success in whatever comes next.

  • Sport of Kings Podcast

    Terrific weekly review of a major big 4/5 sequence of races with Scott and Chris and often a guest. Their insights are second to none and their vulnerable favorites segment sets them apart from all the others. They are an absolute must listen on a weekly basis. By far one of the top podcasts available to the listeners. They even throw in a little humor each week. Carson and Larmey a terrific duo.

  • Hosts need to practice and take podcast craft more seriously

    Great to hear Craig explain TimeForm ratings and Maryland racing history.

    Too often, the hosts laugh at their own horrible, old man jokes with too much old man vigor. And I am an old man.

    The analysis is not definitive but more rambling and inclusive of many ways to see a race or sequence, but always seems to just safely default to longshots.

    The pace is chopped and slurred. But not in the good Houston ways

Fair Grounds Races on 1/17/26 - Analysis AND Betting Discussion with Guest Kevin Kilroy
Q: Any Derby future wager thoughts? There is another future wager pool going this weekend.
Liberty National is a really good horse, I think he's got more development. So it's the type of horse that I could get behind.
Fair Grounds Races on 1/17/26 - Analysis AND Betting Discussion with Guest Kevin Kilroy
Q: What are your thoughts on the turf course and how it plays when the rails are at zero?
I think it's playing faster. We're seeing faster fractions throughout and I think it's been very fair.
Gulfstream Park Races on Saturday Jan 3, 2026 - Analysis AND Betting Discussion with Guest Craig Milkowski
Q: Why can't there be a universally agreed to run up for all distances or just a rule that all timing will begin from the opening of the starting gate?
We can't get tracks to agree on anything, right? I mean, you can't get tracks to cooperate with each other.
