Welcome to our free horse racing picks and selections page. Where we feature some of the sharpest horse handicappers around. Our resident handicappers have years of experience and knowledge in all types of horse profiles. They can weed out the contenders from the pretenders. Handicapping successfully takes years of practice and knowing how to target the right horse from which ones fit the profile of a winner while separating the losers. We provide substantial information on each race that we break down with valid reasons as to why we chose them. We don’t simply throw free horse racing picks up at a dart board hoping to hit a bullseye, we stand behind them. Our resident handicapper Jonathan Stettin also known as P6K or the Pick 6 King has hit many large scores in his life. These selections we give out for free most people charge for. Our free horse racing picks are given as a courtesy to all visitors of Past The Wire. Thanks for joining us, your ultimate source for everything horse racing and let us take you Past The Wire.
