Summary: Handicapping stories and plans for the Travers winner Catholic Boy are the subjects of this week’s Ron Flatter Racing Pod. Catholic Boy’s trainer Jonathan Thomas talks about the path he will take to the Breeders’ Cup. Eclipse Award-winning writer John Scheinman shares stories of handicapping successes and failures and offers lessons for horseplayers both new and seasoned. The racing flashback focuses on the day Bill Shoemaker passed Johnny Longden, and we offer some food and drink tips from the summer at Del Mar.
