Is there a thread for recommending horse racing/handicapping books?

May I recommend "How to F*ck up a Show Parlay in Less than 3 bets"? The authors generally post under pseudonyms around here, but I can get you an autographed copy.

Well, I would have liked to stay at The Tilted Kilt a little longer. That would have been a nice use of my time. But a certain someone kept complaining about almost sh*tting his pants, so we left.:baby:

Sorry but, that was one of the two places in Florida (the restauraunt where Bea Arthur tried to pick up me, you and Alan) where I didn't need to use the facilities.
So I am not to be blamed for you poor wagering habits............... (I have my own issues :o)

Two good ones with a lot of overlap:

Money Secrets at the Racetrack by Barry Meadow
Exotic Betting by Steve Crist

That's the chronological order of their publication too.
