I have always been curious but frankly i have been scared.
Stanford Wong has an excellent book, "Casino Tournament Strategy". The book covers various kinds of tournaments, and there is a section on horseracing tournaments. Many aspects of tournament strategy are the same whether it's a capping tournament, a blackjack tournament, or a craps tournament.

The bj21.com price is $30 +$5 s&h. You can find used/discounted copies at Amazon.com for as little as $14 +$4. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listi...7689158&sr=1-1
