Today's Fair Grounds Horse Racing Picks

State-Bred

A horse bred in a particular state and thus eligible to race in restricted state-bred races. These can be anything from maiden races to stakes events.

Bolt

A sudden veering to the inside or outside rail, often caused by the horse spooking or shying from something.

Dead Heat

Two or more horses finishing so close at the wire, that they were unable to be separated on a photo finish and deemed to have tied.
