West Coast Horse Racing

Friday August 4th from DEL MAR is now available for order, which will include Saturday, August 5th WCHR!

The most read handicappping reports in the country, the WCHR and ECHR, in 2021, we sent out our 5,000th report since 2002. 

Also find the ECHR and NYHR at EastCoastHorseRacing.com, covering Gulfstream (Keeneland up next) and Aqueduct Spring.....The majority of our Members get all reports with the special offer to roll all together!

Most recent Meet: Del Mar Fall reflected a 12% profit on all races at the Meet (we also reflected the same 12% Top Pick ROI profit on all races at the Keeneland Fall Meet, over in the ECHR as well (EastCoastHorseRacing.com).  We have packages to invest in both the WCHR and the ECHR (JOIN page above). 

In 2012, we started the ECHR, you can find our east coast report at EastCoastHorseRacing.com (most recent Meet reflected another TOP PICK ROI profit on all races at the Meet, +12%, in addition to the bread and butter lessons and analysis)

The WCHR has reflected a TOP PICK ROI PROFIT ON ALL RACES AT THE DEL MAR SUMMER MEET, 3 of the last 4 summers (also profiting at the 2021 Del Mar Fall Meets, see stats below), the only service in the country who can make that claim!

The WCHR is the most read daily handicapping report in the country, thank you to all our wonderful longtime members. 

The WCHR is known for our handicapping lessons in each report, double digit winners, and unique handicapping style, there's a reason why we're the most ready daily handicapping reports in the country, along with our sister report, the ECHR (covering races from Gulfstream Winter, Keeneland Spring, Belmont Spring, Saratoga, and Keeneland Fall).


First Timers? The WCHR has been known for years for our debut winners presented to Members. Example? There were 29 debut winners at the 2018 Del Mar Summer Meet, and we had 22 of the 29 (and 23 of the last 24),  Including Top Pick 'Listing,' who returned $46.40.

WCHR (and ECHR), the MOST EFFECTIVE REPORTS IN THE COUNTRY, here's what you'll find in our reports: 

  • Sharp Analysis with handicapping lessons incorporated into each report 
  • "Super Feed" trainer notes, incorporating these trainers into the handicapping equation
  • X Out Runners - Horses we can eliminate on the win end
  • Positive Notes (good gallop outs, good action, etc)
  • Negative Notes (poor gallop outs, poor action, etc)
  • Trainer Data - Current Meet stats, focusing on "super feed" trainers, stats...
  • Horizontal Wagers
  • 'Suggested Win Wagers' when applicable
  • Morning Line Overlays / Underlays

ENDORSEMENTS from some of the biggest names in the business

'West Coast Handicapping Report (WCHR), put together with exceptional dedication by Rob Henie. His handicapping expertise is first-rate, but of equal import are the stats he provides that give insights into the daily Southern California racing scene. Probably the best daily report in California, since Ron Cox and Don Montillon's Northern California Track Record.'
Excerpt from the classic Steve Davidowitz book, BETTING THOROUGHBREDS IN THE 21st CENTURY

"Successful handicappers combine intelligence, patience, discipline and roll-up-your-sleeves hard work to thrive in the difficult world of thoroughbred racing. There is no quick fix or magic elixir that turns a hopeless loser into a successful player. But what can be of great service is to read the work of Rob Henie, in the East Coast Handicapping Report (ECHR) and West Coast Handicapping Report (WCHR).  Through tireless study of replays, grasping successful workout patterns, and understanding the intention of trainers, Henie's reports are written in a clear, concise, and logical way AND you will learn about the nuances of the game. Personally, I highly recommend his work and would encourage all others to give it a read. I have and I'm glad I did."

"In my view, it certainly behooves anyone who wagers on the races at Gulfstream Park in the wintertime or the New York tracks during the rest of the year to read the ECHR. Those who follow the WCHR, the sister publication that covers racing in Southern California, have long known that Rob Henie not only does a terrific job in picking winners, he is adept at finding winners who go off at handsome odds. That is not easy. And best of all, I think, is if you read the ECHR, you not only find out WHO Henie likes, you find out WHY he likes a horse."
Jon White 
Santa Anita Morning Line maker / Racing Historian

"It's not pretty darn good, it's great. I've been handicapping for almost 40 years, and I learn more from your narratives than i do from any other source. The picks are helpful, but without the insightful commentary, it wouldn't be nearly as valuable.
