Ditto on Taulbot. Every time I read his Lessons, I learn something new. I keep trying to tweak his stuff to todays standards. For examp, He recomends the winners generally come from horses that have raced in 15 days or less. Very limiting. I use 21-28 days ala Wm Scott and still seems to work fine.
One nuggett I really try to adhere to is....His angles are most effective when the horse involved in the angle is one of the top 3 or 4 in his "average" pace rating AND in good form. Per Taulbot, angles and figures mean very little unless the horse is in shape for the race.

My thought....His style of figure is really not seen by the public in general....maybe they are so old, they are new again....an edge.
