The Pace Handicapper...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

is best served by following a regular procedure

1, Evaluate the Early part of the race.

Evaluate the chances of the horses involved in that part of the scenario then disqualify runners who don't measure up.

2, Evaluate the Pressers.

Most often, a weak Early pace picture strongly favours this type. They have first run at the leaders and must be given strong consideration.

3, Consider the Closers.

In most races these are the least probable winners. Avoid closers that are unable to reach a striking position by the stretch call. They are proven losers at every track in the country and only win with a complete collapse of the pace.


The format is simple. Unfortunately, most players have little organization in their approach and often proceed too quickly to betting decision. This procedure will give each type it's proper due. It will also ensure adequate understanding of the pace picture for the race you are about to bet.



Modern Pace Handicapping by Tom Brohamer.

You are supposed to be PACE handicappers like Tom Brohamer. How the hell can you evaluate a HORSE from just ONE line.

Look at ALL lines

If you read the above from MPH carefully you will notice he is working his way though the HORSES. Early horse to Pesser to Late . He is looking for the HORSE or HORSES that are the TRUE contenders in TODAYS Match Up. Just like The HAT.


If you have read what i posted and understood it, it should put you in a better position than most playing this Great Game.


Good skill.
