Michael Dempsey has been expertly handicapping horse races for over 30 years.
More than three decades in the business.
Michael is now in his 23rd year bringing his insights to online horse bettors as the Editor-in-Chief at Turf ”n’ Sport and national columnist/handicapper at Vegas Insider, Oddsshark and Bleacher Report.
Michael Dempsey has been handicapping thoroughbreds for three decades, getting his start when a buddy introduced him to his $1,500 claimer running at Charles Town (the horse finished dead last). Michael has been hooked ever since.
In the pre-simulcast days, Michael traveled from Charles Town to Pimlico to Delaware Park with his homemade speed figures and trip notes.
Michael and the staff at Turf ‘n’ Sport cover all the big races in the U.S. and abroad, for horseplayers that bet anything from Aqueduct to the Dubai World Cup to Royal Ascot. Michael covers the New York circuit daily.
Michael was a partner in the Hampshire Racing Partnership for six years, and as a horse owner racing thoroughbreds throughout the Mid Atlantic region, he knows the sport from trackside to backstretch.
Michael created the Winners Circle Handicapping Syndicate, a group devoted to hitting the big carryover pools and the Breeders’ Cup Pick 6, and on the way introduced many new fans to the sport of horse racing. The groups’ resume included several Pick 6 hits, and a Twin Tri score at Laurel Park for $15,684.30 with only one live ticket.
Michael is a freelance writer and full time professional handicapper and horseplayer, and previously was one of the top handicappers for TrackMaster/Equibase for over a decade, consistently picking winners for a loyal base of customers.
