I give it 4 stars October 31, 2005
30 out of 33 found this review helpful
I got this book a week or so ago and was quite impressed. I've read almost every book on handicapping and this gave me some really useful bits of information. And I love his concept of relating the stock market and handicapping. While many handicapping books out there were good in their day, it makes sense to me that they can only continue to be successful if everyone and his brother aren't using them. Speed, and pace handicapping are fine, but again the information is so accessible, there really isn't any advantage to mastering those methods. This book is an entirely new approach which, too, may lose its "luster" so to speak, in twenty years, but for now its definitely the best current release on the subject. True pros who handicap for a living may not find it as useful as I do, but beginners to advanced intermediate handicappers should definitely have this book on their shelf.

The Author Mark E. Ripple clearly does NOT know what he's talking about. "Handicapping the Wall Street Way" is a great example of an author clearly way out of his league. He boasts and rationalizes why he is winning certain races, and quite frankly has no idea what he's talking about. If your in finance and wondering..... is it worth reading....don't even bother reading this awful excuse for a book on handicapping.... It can only hurt your money management at the track. One would think that a savvy wall street guru would be able to use variance and standard deviation as a measure of risk in a horse race?
