Woodbine Selections – April 15, 2017

We’re back! After a four-month offseason, Woodbine racing is back for another 133-day marathon meet. The action kicks off tomorrow afternoon and I’ll be providing my daily selections right here all season long. We finished last season with 368 winners from 1,249 races (29% strike rate) with an ROI of $1.68 for every $2 wagered, while our best bets of the day finished with 46 winners from 130 starters (35% strike rate) with an ROI of $1.93 for every $2 wagered. Hopefully, we can improve on both of those figures this season. Here are my selections for Saturday’s 10-race opening day card.
