how to pick the favorite May 31, 2005 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
pretty comprehensive one of the classics and will teach you all the pertinet aspects of handicapping i have referred to my copy again and again over the years and this book will never go out of date as it deals with the fundamentals of handicapping breaks down the races into specific catagories and in each catagory specifies the attritbutes that the top contenders should have. probably one of the most intelligent books i have read on handicapping horses and i have read plenty over the past 25 years
Increase your handicapping I.Q.: May 15, 2005 6 out of 9 found this review helpful
james Quinn has written the Bible of race conditions. Quinn de-mystifies race conditions and melds conditions into class considerations. He has a separate section for each condtion: Maiden Special Weights, Maiden Claimers, Alw NW1X, NW2X, etc, claiming races -- Stakes etc. Quinn devotes an entire section on 3-year old races. After reading and absorbing this book, the handicapper is able to "throw out" non-contenders at nearly a glance -- leaving only the horses that can win today. Quinn has made me a knowledgable handicapper who knows exactly why the horse I am betting on today should win. I refer to Quinn's Condition Book often -- I recommend it to all handicappers who want to improve their win percentage, make more money, and of course, have more fun 10 stars for this one.

Quinn is the MAN!! March 26, 2003 3 out of 6 found this review helpful
This was truly an eye opener for me, a casual Thoroughbred bettor. James Quinn has positively showed me the light! This book is an up to date, complete analysis of modern formulas to understand how eligible horses qualify for certain races and how to spot the probable winner. 100 stars!!!!

To win at the races you need to eliminate the losers. This book gives the serious handicapper the tools to choose the horses that are really in contention for todays race. With the help of this book and some reasonable handicapping skills, one can see a difference at the betting windows. The only criticsm is that there is not any great insight on money management, which was not the purpose of this book but would have been a nice bonus.
