Every Week.
This is the heartbeat of the membership. Every Friday we post four of our most carefully curated plays, each with a Top Pick and two contenders with analysis, the official win bet and suggested exotics.
2 Best Bets
The strongest wagering opportunities we identified that week.
2 Value Plays
Horses or situations where the expected price makes the wager worth considering.
On major racing days, members also get bonus picks when the card warrants it.
What a play looks like · example for illustration only
Has the tactical speed to sit just off the leaders and the grit to win a stretch battle. His last two efforts came against tougher company, and the drop in class puts him right on top of this field. At 5-1 he offers real value for a horse this consistent.
The fastest horse in the race on raw speed figures and the likely favorite. The concern is a short price and an outside draw that could force him wide into the first turn.
Overlooked after a troubled trip last out, when she checked hard at the quarter pole. Her trainer does well with horses coming back in this spot, and she fits underneath in the exotics.
Top Pick:#5 Silver Charm
Win Bet:1 Unit @ 5-1
Official ROI: Based exclusively on 1-unit flat win bets on the Top Pick.Exacta:5 with 2,7
Trifecta:5 with 2,7 with 2,7,3,6
A deep closer who should get the fast early pace she needs, with three confirmed speed horses signed on. Her late-running figures are the best in the field, and she has rarely been offered at this price. A true value play at 8-1.
Classy and consistent, and the rail draw lets him save ground all the way around. Hard to leave out, though his best races have come on a firmer surface.
Will be on the lead or just off it. If the expected speed duel never develops, he could be the one to catch turning for home.
Top Pick:#4 Zenyatta
Win Bet:1 Unit @ 8-1
Official ROI: Based exclusively on 1-unit flat win bets on the Top Pick.Exacta:4 with 1,6
Trifecta:4 with 1,6 with 1,6,3,8

Questions
What is Trackside Edge?
Trackside Edge is the TracksideProfits membership. It gives you ongoing access to our handicapping: four weekly plays, a full-card Blueprint every month, member-only analysis, a private Discord and a public record of every Top Pick.
How often do members receive picks?
Every week. Members get four plays every Friday on the Weekly Plays page (two Best Bets and two Value Plays), each with a top pick and two contenders with analysis, the official 1-unit win bet and suggested exotics. Bonus picks are added for major racing days when the card warrants it.
What are the 12 monthly Blueprints?
Each month, members get one complete full-card Blueprint for a major race day, the same full-card product we sell individually for $29.99. The 12 cards: Pegasus World Cup (January), Southwest Stakes (February), Florida Derby (March), Santa Anita Derby (April), Kentucky Derby (May), Belmont Stakes (June), Haskell Stakes (July), Travers Stakes (August), Pennsylvania Derby (September), Breeders' Cup (October), Clark Handicap (November) and Malibu Stakes (December).
Are the picks guaranteed?
No. There are no guaranteed winners and no guaranteed profits. Every wager carries risk, and some plays will lose.
The value of the membership is in the analysis, the monthly Blueprints, the ongoing coverage and a transparent record you can check for yourself.
How are results tracked?
Our published win rate and ROI are based exclusively on 1-unit win bets on the designated Top Pick. Suggested exactas and trifectas are provided as additional wagering ideas and are not included in the official ROI calculation. Every win and loss is recorded.
Is the Discord included?
Yes. The private member Discord is part of the membership at no extra cost. It's where members discuss races and wagers, and where Trackside Tom is active and answers questions.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Trackside Edge is month to month with no contract. Cancel anytime and you keep access through the end of your current billing period.
