Labor intensive but rewarding

This author shares his name with an english billionaire unless they are one in the same. I found the book very interesting and if you do the work and follow the guidelines exactly you are sure to meet with success 75 percent of the time. Anyone who knows horseracing knows these are very good odds. Still I was left with more questions than answers. It might be interesting to meet this author to discuss these findings further.

WHAT'S IMPORTANT, AND WHAT'S NOT.

The samples used in this text were only included as a guide to show what information is important in determining how a Trainer will perform in any given situation. They show what is to be included in the database you must set up and maintain on a daily basis in order to learn which Trainers are successful and inder what conditions. Only by daily logging in the relevant details of each Trainer's performance can you create the electronic library that will (when you have sufficient data), kick out in seconds, all the worthwhile plays on any given day. Before you make your first bet, you must have a database of the past six months (minimum) of activity at your track; a year is even better. Once you have this in hand, and you continue to update on a daily basis, the betting method descrobed in HANDICAPPING TRAINERS will work for the rest of your life.
