Dear Mitch

This is from Howard Sartin himself,
Introduction Howard G Sartin, Ph. D.
Page xiii

The publisher's comment on the books dust jacket are to me, most provocative.
" There is a revolution going on in the world of thoroughbred handicapping.
One of its leaders is Tom Brohamer, who in Modern Pace Handicapping,
shares his knowledge of pace and shows how to become a sure winner.
Written by a leading practitioner of the Sartin Methodology, the book
is the first and only word that matters on pace in thoroughbred handicapping"
I am credited with firing the first shots in this handicapping revolution:
The most talked about and significant in the 1980s and gaining momentum
in the 90s. When this method was developed in 1975, certain members in my Win Therapy group had difficulty in effectivly utilizing the
complex formulae and numeral compounding of feet per seconnd calculations. By adopting a simpler version, as described in this book,these
clients were able to enjoy success levels on a par with those clients who
chose the more elaborate techniques so well described in Brohamer's book.
The handicappers ultimate task is predicting the outcome of future events
The means of prediction may be elaborate or simple. The road taken is secondary to reaching the destination. Total Pace Rating, while easy to apply are a harmonious counterpoint to the technologicaly perfect melodic line of Modern Pace Handicapping. This volume will detail some aspects of the
Methodology that Brohamer touched upon lightly or not at all; and will make but short references to the many areas that Brohamer deals with in brilliant
detail .

Mitch I love this piece from PMTR.
