One of the all time great books April 23, 2005 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I should have included this book in my list of best handicapping books but it was out of print. This is not a simple book and the author assumes you are an adequate if not great handicapper. The most valuable information in this book is how to validate a handicapping method, how to create an objective value line among many other gems. The math is highschool math not Ziemba and Hausch math, although he covers the authors in this book too. I've gone back to this book many times for reference. It's a unique and valuable contribution to any handicapping library.

A Must-Have for the serious August 25, 2004 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is an excellent reference for the serious horse player. The appendix "Statistical Validation," which shows you how to determine how many races you need to test before you can have confidence in a new system, is worth the price of the book.
