Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 7, 2022 Journalists Posted October 7, 2022 Chuck Simon, a trainer for two decades in horse racing who previously worked for legends of the game like H. Allen Jerkens and D. Wayne Lukas, has reinvented himself in the sport. After being squeezed out of the training game in part due to the rise of the “super trainer”, Simon has become one of the most articulate critics of racing and advocates for the sport's reform, both on Twitter and the hit Going in Circles podcast, which he co-hosts with handicapper Barry Spears. Wednesday, Simon joined Bettor Things with Joe Bianca for an expansive discussion on his handicapping and training roots, the challenges and shortcoming of the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Act, the important role of racing Twitter in holding the industry accountable and much more. Later on, Bianca's Breeders' Cup Challenge betting series shifted to the excellent action on opening weekend at Keeneland, as Bianca handicapped and laid out plays for six intriguing Win and You're In qualifiers across a variety of divisions.
