A classic guide to handicap strategies in the field of thoroughbred racing.
Just as football evolved with the introduction of the forward pass and basketball with the development of the jump shot, so too was handicapping forever changed by the use of speed figures -- it all started with Andrew Beyer. Picking Winners is essential reading for both serious horseplayers and curious amateurs. It is often referenced by stock options traders for insight into the numbers game.

In The Winning Horseplayer, Andrew Beyer builds on the strategy of speed handicapping that he detailed brilliantly in Picking Winners by introducing the concept of trip handicapping. Through an unbeatable combination of case studies and lively anecdotes, Beyer shows the smart bettor how to combine past performance data with an understanding of trips, track bias, and pace. This advanced guide to handicapping, which includes a new preface by the author, offers a generous dose of the wit and wisdom that have made Beyer a legend in the sport.

Mark Cramer is at his happiest in the dim light of the off-track betting parlor, where the flickering glow of the racetrack monitors dances to the low, steady rumble of the race caller's voice. You'd feel the same if you knew what Cramer knows about thoroughbred handicapping

My wagering system, WILL make you Win MORE OFTEN My System is absolutely revolutionary to the world of horse betting, as you know it And, out of pure generosity; I'm going to divulge it to the entire Internet community. I sometimes hit 70% of my win bets I'm now 41 years of age and as of age 28; I was officially a professional horse handicapper. I've lived all over the world, and over the past ten years (and since the advent of the Internet), I've made a very comfortable living wagering primarily on the game of Horse Racing. My techniques work overseas and quite obviously here in the good old U.S.A. I once spent three months in an entirely foreign land with just 2,000.00USD to my name. I came back home with a little over 12k (http: //thetuttlemathpsm.com/)

This is the third in a series of handicapping books by professional handicapper Bobby Zen. He has been picking winners for some forty years, and introduces many concepts here that have never been presented to the horse racing world. There was a tremendous amount of research done for this one, going back some three years. This work is split into three sections. The first covers the picks, or choices made on horses with the best chances to win or be a part of a multi-level bet. This section goes into some pretty solid detail, and includes many revisions to the original work in 2007, Bet To Win There are some charts and some checklists to work with in this section. The second section covers the money management, or betting concepts. The fundamentals of betting are covered here, again including some charts. Here the book gets into some new areas that include how our brains work regarding money and decisions with some pretty technical information. Some self-analysis theories are included to fine tune the process. The third section gets into more technical information and theories about how to handicap yourself. Again, some checklists are included to help with this process. The reader is challenged to decide how much risk and restraint they are willing to apply as they learn how to run a betting business for themselves. There is even a section on becoming a master at this whole process. Overall, this work is geared to towards experienced race players looking to up their game in handicapping, money management; and/or getting a better understanding of their own style of horse selections and money management. This work breaks new ground on making inroads to success on betting horses for profit.
