Inside of four months before Kentucky Derby 2025, what are the dos
and don’ts of futures betting on America’s biggest race? A panel with plenty of
experience making and taking those wagers is front and center this week on the
Ron Flatter Racing Pod.

Michael Beychok won the 2012 National Horseplayers Championship, and
Jody McDonald is a host on Infinity Sports Network, WFAN in New York and WIP in
Philadelphia. Both have had their successes and failures with long-range
handicapping of the Derby, and they share those tales. Based in Las Vegas, Paul
Zilm wrote futures odds for five years on the Kentucky Derby. Now that he has
left Circa Sports, he is free to share insights about how the numbers move.

Super Screener creator Mike Shutty takes his turn in the handicappers
rotation, and co-host John Cherwa of the Los Angeles Times weighs in
during the weekly reading of listener and reader feedback.

The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is
available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well
