If you’ve followed Battaglia’s Picks for any length of time, you’ve seen the phrase:

“BOOM Exacta!”

…But what exactly does that mean?

Let’s clear it up — because this is important.

Simple. Clean. No fluff.

A Boom Exacta isn’t a win bet…
It isn’t a chalk exacta…
And it definitely isn’t one of those $9.20 payouts you see everywhere else.

A Boom Exacta is what I consider the gold standard of value:

Any exacta with a $1 payoff of $50 or more.

These are the bets that:

And lately… we’re hitting them at a rate that even I know isn’t normal.

Absolutely — here is the fully combined, fully updated, and fully detailed paragraph with track, date, race number, and winning exacta numbers for all four Boom Exactas:

Here’s what we did last week at Churchill Downs:

💥 Race 1 — $50.12 Boom Exacta (Winning Numbers: 1–5)
💥 Race 9 — $51.00 Boom Exacta (Winning Numbers: 4–6)

💥 Race 4 — $64.39 Boom Exacta (Winning Numbers: 1–7)

💥 Race 9 — $84.54 Boom Exacta (Winning Numbers: 9–2)

That’s four Boom Exactas in a six-day span, all paying $50+ and all coming at Churchill Downs. Exactly what the method is designed to produce.

💥 Race 7 — $111.00 Boom Exacta (Winning Numbers: 7–3B)

This wasn’t part of last week’s streak — but it continues the momentum and highlights exactly why Boom Exactas remain one of the most reliable value plays we offer.

They turn good days into great ones… and “just okay” days into profitable ones.

We’ve had so many Boom Exactas recently that I have a real concern:

I don’t want my players thinking this is “easy” or “normal.”

Because it isn’t.

If ANY other handicapping site hit even one big exacta, it would be:

Meanwhile, we’re hitting them so consistently that I think some of you are starting to assume:

“Yeah… that’s just how Battaglia’s Picks works.”

And while I love that confidence, I also want to keep expectations realistic.

Because these hits are earned — not automatic.

Just a small sample of what we’ve delivered:

This is why I get nervous when players act like these hits are “routine.”

They’re not routine.

They’re the result of a very specific approach.

Our exacta strategy isn’t based on luck, guessing, or boxing horses “just because.”

It’s built on a disciplined process that blends 40 years of handicapping experience with an advanced AI engine trained to spot value the public consistently overlooks.

Here’s how it works:

This is the foundation.
No fluff. No guessing.

Just the four horses with the best combination of:

But here’s the key difference:

Our AI doesn’t stop at the obvious.

It sifts through thousands of data points per race, analyzing things like:

It’s constantly looking for one thing:

Where the big exacta payoffs are hiding.

When the top 4 contenders line up with the AI’s highest-value scenarios… that’s when the real opportunities appear.

Big exactas don’t come from predictable races.

They come from:

That’s where value lives — and that’s where we focus our exacta boxes.

Anyone can hit a big exacta once.
Almost no one can hit them consistently without blowing their bankroll.

Players who try to replicate big hits without structure usually torch their money.

Our system is:

A Boom Exacta doesn’t just feel good — it can cover an entire weekend of plays.

That’s why we don’t chase.
We don’t spray the board.
We wait for the right setups — and when they appear, we strike.

I’m incredibly proud of how consistently we’re producing these high-value returns.

But I also want everyone to understand:

This isn’t normal.
This isn’t luck.
And it isn’t something most handicappers can do even once.

It’s the result of:

Use them wisely.
Enjoy them when they come.
And always remember: they are the bonus, not the baseline.
