Today's Sandy Ridge Horse Racing Picks

Apprentice

A new jockey who has not ridden a certain number of winners in a specified time period.

Bolt

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

Trifecta

A wager picking the first, second and third horses in the exact order. A trifecta box means paying more to ensure the horses can finish in any order in the top three spots.
