Horse Racing picks for Parx race track on Tuesday, October 31

There is plenty of great Horse Racing across America on Tuesday, including at Parx race track in Philadelphia. We have been in fine form with our picks for a long time now and we are up +138.55 units with our race selections to our recommended stakes dating back to August 5, 2021. Let’s keep it rolling! Here are our best bets for today’s action at Parx race track . 12:40 pm ET Parx (Race 1) – Mii Amo 9/5 (2-star play) The daughter of Social Inclusion has shown plenty of ability in her five starts to date including when finishing on the board twice. The second of those efforts saw the juvenile beaten a nose in a five-and-a-half-furlong $30,000 maiden claimer at this venue early last month. The John Servis-trained filly tackles a similar contest here and coming this event on the back of a 50.07 four furlong work here she looks capable of registering her first victory.  3:22 pm ET Parx (Race 7) – Jeeper 7/2 (2-star play) The four-year-old showed good form for his previous trainer

Borussia Dortmund consider Jamie Bynoe-Gittens loan to aid Jadon Sancho return

Image
Borussia Dortmund are ready to allow Jamie Bynoe-Gittens to move on loan in January as they continue to explore a possible reunion with Jadon Sancho, 90min understands. Dortmund have made a solid start to the Bundesliga season, sitting fourth in the standings and still unbeaten, but the belief at the club is that more is needed to make a genuine push for the title and the final third has been identified as an area in need of improvement. As a result, a potential reunion with Sancho, who remains frozen out at Manchester United after his public spat with manager Erik ten Hag, is part of Dortmund's plans for the January transfer window. United would be open to a permanent departure but accept a loan is the most likely option for Sancho, although much will depend on the Red Devils' financial demands as Dortmund would struggle to contribute a significant percentage of Sancho's current wages - the Englishman could also agree to a salary cut to help smooth over a move which 90mi

2023 Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi dismisses Barcelona farewell game talks

2023 Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi has taken to social media to reject claims that he has agreed to hold talks with Barcelona president Joan Laporta over a farewell Game with the Catalan club. The Inter Miami playmaker spent 17 seasons with La Blaugrana before leaving under something of a cloud for Paris Saint-German in 2021. The 36-year-old, who is both Barça’s record goalscorer and appearance-maker, was full of praise for his former club as he took part in a media press conference at the Châtelet Theatre in Paris on Monday. « All my Ballon d'Or are special, they all have a different meaning » 💬 Leo Messi, our 2023 Ballon d’Or. #ballondor pic.twitter.com/xSPgbG5rhI — Ballon d'Or #ballondor (@ballondor) October 31, 2023 Messi: “Barcelona is the club I will love all my life” “I follow Barcelona, as I always said and I will continue to do so, it’s the club I will love for my entire life, ” was perhaps the stand-out phrase from Messi’s tribute to Barça, with whom he w

Biden administration aims to cut AI risks with executive order

US President Joe Biden is seeking to reduce the risks that artificial intelligence (AI) poses to consumers, workers, minority groups and national security with a new executive order on Monday. It requires developers of AI systems that pose risks to US national security, the economy, public health or safety to share the results of safety tests with the US government, in line with the Defense Production Act, before they are released to the public. The order, which Biden signed at the White House, also directs agencies to set standards for that testing and address related chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and cybersecurity risks. "To realize the promise of AI and avoid the risk, we need to govern this technology," Biden said. "In the wrong hands AI can make it easier for hackers to exploit vulnerabilities in the software that makes our society run." The move is the latest step by the administration to set parameters around AI as it makes rapid gains in

The US has decided that Southwest's customer service failed during flight cancellations last winter

The federal government may be preparing to penalize Southwest Airlines for thousands of flight cancellations that affected more than 2 million travelers last December DALLAS -- Federal regulators have told Southwest Airlines that the carrier failed to provide enough help to travelers who were stranded during massive cancellations last December, and the airline could be subject to a fine. Southwest said in a regulatory filing Monday that it can't estimate the cost of a fine and damages from lawsuits stemming from nearly 17,000 canceled flight s last December. Southwest said the U.S. Department of Transportation told the airline Friday that "it has determined the company had failed to provide adequate customer service assistance, prompt flight status notifications, and proper and prompt refunds and that the assessment of a civil penalty is warranted.” The government indicated in January that it was investigating Southwest over the service collapse, which stranded more than 2

As economy falters, more Chinese migrants seek asylum at US border

A major influx of Chinese migration to the United States on a relatively new and perilous route through Panama's Darién Gap jungle has become increasingly popular thanks to social media SAN DIEGO -- The young Chinese man looked lost and exhausted when Border Patrol agents left him at a transit station. Deng Guangsen, 28, had spent the last two months traveling to San Diego from the southern Chinese province of Guangdong, through seven countries on plane, bus and foot, including traversing Panama's dangerous Darién Gap jungle. “I feel nothing,” Deng said in the San Diego parking lot, insisting on using the broken English he learned from the “Harry Potter” film series. “I have no brother, no sister. I have nobody.” Deng is part of a major influx of Chinese migration to the United States on a relatively new and perilous route that has become increasingly popular with the help of social media. Chinese people were the fourth-highest nationality, after Venezuelans, Ecuadorians and Ha

Explosion off Nigeria points to threat posed by aging oil ships around the world

An explosion aboard the Trinity Spirit off the coast of Nigeria last year that killed five workers and left two others unaccounted for stands among the deadliest tragedies on an oil ship or platform in recent years OKITIPUPA, Nigeria -- It was the dead of night when the ship caught fire, Patrick Aganyebi remembers, but the flames made it seem as bright as day. The explosion that night woke him and knocked him to the floor. He tucked his phone and his ID card in his pockets, strapped on a life jacket and made his way to the upper deck. As the flames barreled toward him, he prepared to jump nearly 100 feet (30 meters) into the sea. Five workers were killed and two others presumed dead in the blast on the Trinity Spirit, a rusting converted oil tanker anchored 15 miles (24 km) off the coast of Nigeria that pulled crude oil from the ocean floor. It was by the grace of God, Aganyebi said, that he and two fellow crewmen escaped, rescued by a pair of fishermen as the burning vessel sank along
