Frank R. Scatoni—coauthor of “Six Secrets of Successful Bettors” and former editor of “The HorsePlayer Magazine”—is focusing his horse-by-horse analysis and “Matrix” wagering technique on the $3 All Turf Pick 3 and $3 Late Pick 3. The payouts of these new wagers have consistently returned way more than the equivalent win parlays, giving sharp players an opportunity to exploit inefficient markets. In addition to this written analysis, Scatoni and his cohost, Ciaran Thornton, on their livestream “Double Trouble Live,” tackle these wagers in real-time, focusing on finding overlays, constructing strategic tickets, and building a community of confident horseplayers who aggressively attack these bets, knowing they have an edge thanks to the low 15 percent takeout and higher minimums.

Ciaran Thornton the head handicapper at California Pick 4 and co-host of the live wagering show Double Trouble Live with Frank Scatoni - grew up in Ireland and at a young age, thanks to his dad’s guidance, learned the art of horse handicapping. Ciaran finished ranked #8 in the NTRA 2025 Handicapping Tour and has been a frequent guest on TVG and Tom Quigley’s 1st Bet Seminars. Ciaran has now turned his attention to the Low Takeout bets championed by Santa Anita, emphasizing the 15% low takeout $3 All Turf Pick 3.

JP has been an avid horseplayer since 1981, when he first started going to the track with his Dad and best friend. He specializes in Southern California racing, with a focus on the increasingly popular player-friendly exotics - The Late $3 Pick 3 and the $5 Late Daily Double.

JP's handicapping approach relies primarily on Thoro-Graph performance figures, a tool he believes provides the most accurate read on a horse's true performance. He also factors in race shape, workout reports and trip handicapping. A firm believer that ticket construction is just as important as handicapping itself, JP spends equal time crafting his wagers as he does analyzing the races.
