I got this book waay before I even heard of Doc Sartin (1983) and although I didn't understand barely a thing back then about what he was talking about, re-reading it in the past 10 years makes a lot more sense.

A very interesting and literate treatment of pace as well as fitness. I'm surprised it is not more well known.

Ted,I was thinking the same thing nobody ever mentions it.He points out in the book about horses that take the lead in the stretch and fade that next time out they are good bets.Now that Im looking for it damn if he wasnt right and some pretty good mutuals as well.Jeff

Just bought it on ebay on your recommendation - I'll let you know my take on it after the holidays.
