Welcome to the main event! Starting Saturday, September 29th, handicappers across the U.S. and Canada will square off in the greatest FREE online handicapping contest on the internet - the $25,000 Brisnet.com Online Handicapping Challenge. For four consecutive Saturdays, horseplayers will test their skills against the best to claim the final two spots on the Brisnet.com team heading to Las Vegas for the $200,000 NTRA National Handicapping Championship.

In the first two years of National Handicapping Championship, Brisnet members have claimed over $200,000 in prize money including Handicapper of the Year Steve Walker's $100,000 Grand Prize. Join spring Challenge winners Ed Gasperi and Ron Howard on the Brisnet.com team and earn the right to play for $100,000 and the title of Handicapper of the Year. Our grand prize winner in the fall Challenge will walk away with a cool $10,000 and a trip to Las Vegas, and the runner-up will receive $1,000 in online credit and a trip to Las Vegas. In addition, $2,500 in weekly prize money will be awarded.

So if you are ready to play, let's lay down the rules. First, to win a spot on the team you have to register online to play at www.brisnet.com/challenge. No exceptions! Sign up closes each Friday by 3:00 p.m. EDT. You only need to register once to participate in all four legs of the Challenge. Don't get left at the starting gate.

Contestants can win one of two ways. Each contest date players need to select one horse in each of the ten designated contest races starting on Saturday, September 29th. For each correct selection a player will earn one point as well as the $2 win mutuel payoff.

Another Brisnet.com employee heading to Las Vegas!

Rich Nilsen joined Alan Wheeler as the second Brisnet.com employee to win a qualifying handicapping contest this summer. On Saturday, August 11, at Keeneland, Nilsen used $2 win and place wagers to turn a $44 bankroll into $90 on the 11-race Ellis Park card. That earned him the $10,000 grand prize and a trip to Las Vegas to compete in the 3rd annual DRF/NTRA National Handicapping Championship. Nilsen finished 44th in last year's event.

Using Ultimate PPs with Comments, Nilsen cashed seven of the 11 races on Gardenia Stakes day. His highest priced winner was Linda's Lad ($17.60) in the second race. Beginning with the fifth race, he cashed six consecutive races, including two "one-two" finishes in the ninth and tenth races.

Ironically, the Ellis Park card was almost canceled after a power outage that lasted for nearly over half an hour. Keeneland management was preparing to switch the contest to Saratoga, the backup track.

"Although I had also handicapped the Saratoga card, I did not want them to switch from Ellis Park," Nilsen explained. "I had spent hours of handicapping the Ultimate PPs for Ellis, so I felt well prepared for the day's contest."

A qualifier in 1999, Alan Wheeler used MultiCaps software and his keen handicapping acumen to win the Ellis Park handicapping contest on July 19, earning him a free trip to Las Vegas. The $200,000 National Handicapping Championship is held each January at the MGM Grand.

Brisnet.com is holding a qualifying contest with 2 free trips to the Vegas tournament September 29 - October 20. Visit www.brisnet.com/challenge for more details and to sign up free by September 28 at 3 p.m. EDT.

Get the Inside Information for the Belmont Breeders' Cup!

It was hardly a surprise in 1995 when Inside Information destroyed her competition in the Breeders' Cup Distaff. But for every Inside Information, each Breeders' Cup at Belmont has produced several nice prices such as Safely Kept ($26.40) in 1990 and Desert Stormer ($31.00) in 1995. The difference between having a great Breeders' Cup and a potential $5 million payday revolves around spotting these longshots. To help you identify all the contenders including the best longshots, America's top handicapper the Wizard will be writing a weekly Breeders' Cup Scouting Report exclusively for Brisnet.

The Wizard's Breeders' Cup Scouting Report is for the serious handicapper who wants to leave no stone unturned on Cup day. Each week features the Wizard's in-depth analysis of the major Breeders' Cup preps, breaking news on all the contenders here & abroad and interviews with trainers on their BC hopefuls. A New York native, the Wizard's exclusive insights will give you the home field advantage on Cup Day. The Scouting Report is an absolute must for handicappers looking to place future book wagers. The final 2 issues will include the Wizard's very own odds line. Available every Wednesday beginning September 12th for only $8 per issue, the Wizard's Breeders' Scouting Report is the inside information you need.

Making a consistent profit at the races is every horseplayer's goal. This requires both discipline and selecting the right spots on a daily basis. Lack of conviction coupled with a shotgun approach to wagering is often the downfall of many handicappers. Consider the Wizard's Pick of the Day as one strong spot play every racing day.

In this one-page report, the Wizard begins by providing you a pace analysis of the race setup. An in-depth analysis of the selection follows along with the appropriate wagering strategy to help you crush the race!

Let the Wizard find you one great play, every day! Get the Wizard's Pick of the Day for only $6.00 at Brisnet.com
