Inside Featured Track

Duke's work on the meet, and a room that works it with you.

i.

The daily read

Every race day, Duke posts his work on the card in a private channel: the horses he's watching, his analysis of the bias, the wagers he is making and the unit size on each, the ticket structure, and the races where he is passing.

ii.

One meet, followed deep

Duke picks a meet and stays on it. Known bias, known trainers, known shippers. Depth on one circuit beats a thin look at ten, and that is where the edge actually comes from.

iii.

The Clubhouse

A community of horseplayers working the same meet. You bring your own card, talk through angles, and leave with a better ticket.

How it works

From the morning read to the last race.

i.

The analysis lands

Duke posts his work on the day's card: his analysis of the bias, the horses he's watching, where he's playing, and where he's passing.

ii.

The room goes to work

Members talk through the card in the channel. You bring your own angles and your own tickets, and sharpen them against Duke's analysis.

iii.

The big days hit different

Stakes days, festival weekends, the cards the meet builds toward. Deep fields, live prices, and the days the channel works hardest.

From the Community

What it does to how you play.

This was my first time ever paying for a service of a professional handicapper. So glad I did it. I thoroughly enjoyed your live session. And was very impressed with your knowledge and picks.

Duke has created a welcoming, helpful community of like-minded horseplayers. You can ask for professional advice on ticket structure, bounce ideas off other players about a potential handicapping angle and laugh about bad beat stories all in the same place. In my opinion the picks are secondary.

Questions

A few honest answers.

How do I get Duke's analysis?

Join Featured Track and you're in: a single day ($17), a week ($67), a month ($147), or the year ($1,470). Pick your seat above.

When does my access start?

The moment you join. You're in the Clubhouse and the Featured Track channel right away, and Duke's analysis runs every race day of the featured meet.

Is this a subscription?

Your call. The day and week passes are one-time purchases with no renewal. Monthly and annual renew until you cancel, and you can cancel anytime.

Which track is featured?

One meet at a time, chosen by Duke and followed in depth for as long as it runs. The current one is named at the top of this page, and it changes as the calendar does.

Do I get the Zoom handicapping sessions?

Not with Featured Track. The live Zoom handicapping sessions are a Members' Room feature.

Can I upgrade to the Members' Room (VIP) later?

Yes. You can move up to the Members' Room anytime, and the details land in your email.

Does Featured Track cover every track Duke is playing?

No. Featured Track is one meet at a time. For Duke's wider work across the country, that lives in the Members' Room.

I'm already in the Members' Room. Do I need this?

No. The Members' Room already includes Duke's analysis of every meet he's playing, plus direct access to him and everything else. You're already in.
