S7E12: Maryland, California, New York, Florida ... and Shecky

The Ron Flatter Racing Pod

It is a coast-to-coast episode to start the new year on the Ron Flatter Racing Pod.

From the east, Brittany Russell talks about being the first woman to train the most winners in a calendar year in Maryland. She also looks at Regalo’s bid to win the Jerome Stakes, a Kentucky Derby 2024 prep Saturday at Aqueduct.

Racing insider Bob Ike looks at some early returns on the winter-spring meet at Santa Anita, where the handle is down, and the San Vicente Stakes (G2) will be run Saturday.

Paddock Prince handicapper David Levitch has tips for weekend races, including the Jerome at Aqueduct and the all-stakes late Pick 3 at Gulfstream Park.

There also will be listener and reader feedback and a tribute to the late comic and horseplayer Shecky Greene.
