Canterbury Park Handicapping Helper for August 4

Tonight's handicapping primer for Canterbury Park is now available.  Ten races are coming up tonight at Canterbury, with the first two being Quarter Horse races.  All of the Thoroughbred races are on TVG, and the two Quarter Horse races are on TVG2, with pick 4s available starting in races three and seven, and the pick 5, beginning in race six.

Don't forget, we also have a free guide to Canterbury, courtesy of Equinometry, with historical stats, racing styles, and other thoughts that should help you if you don't have experience playing there.  We'd like to thank Lenny Moon for putting the guide together.
