bobp,
which book are you referring to?

bobp · 04-02-2008, 04:10 PM

The Handicappers Condition Book, by James Quinn. There are many others, this pretty well tells the story to build a good knowlege foundation of racing. But I think you may have read a few more . Which ones would you prefer ?

Ray Taulbot....
His lessons are priceless. His treatise on pace, after Huey, is one of the best.

all of Ray's book, most of all, his lessons.
Race is Pace by Huey

Handicapper's Condition Book is the best to learn about class but Taulbot is tops when it comes to angles.

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.
