5 out of 5 stars Page after page of handicapping gems.   November 3, 1998
 29 out of 32 found this review helpful

From Silky Sullivan to the making of speed figures, and on through "looking through the trainer's window," Steve-O's book has things to teach even when he isn't trying. But most of all, this book is sound on the fundamentals. Handicapping thoroughbreds, as a craft, contains elements of math, intuition, reason and insight all bound up in a chance proposition. Cut down the chance-factors, concentrate on what you understand, and you CAN do well. Davidowitz's book is the first step & easy to read on top of it all.


5 out of 5 stars One of the Best   March 28, 1998
For the intermediate to advanced horseplayer looking for a good synthesis of ideas on successful handicapping, this book is a must read! Of all the handicapping books I've read, this one has by far the greatest depth and clearest organization. Each of the numerous chapters is dedicated to a single concept, all of which are well thought out and do not conform to a single "system" (which is the case with more than a few handicapping books). I fully recommend this book to any horseplayer.
