![]() I'm rather new here but have been into horse racing since 1981 when I made my maiden trip to Monmouth Park for the Haskell. I have always used the DRF and swear by it. I tried the PPs in the track programs but do not like them due to the limited space. As a matter of fact when I go to the track I usually try and get the Pocket Programs, not to save $ but but as a matter of preference.
In perusing the selections area I couldn't help but notice that some of you handicappers are Outstanding and was wondering what tools you use. I do not have time to create my own speed figs and don't really care to. Between my commute and work I do not have much time to handicap on a regular basis and typically only buy the DRF on days when I go to the track or big racing days. I subscribe to the The Bloodhorse, not so much for the handicapping angle but to know what is going on in the "game". I have read several handicapping books including: Ainslie's Complete Guide to Thoroughbred Racing, 3rd Edition, Betting Thoroughbreds; A Professionals Guide for the Horseplayer, Beyer on Speed, Exotic Betting. Are there any other seminal books that I should read and or publications that I should be using. I usually play NYRA tracks as I live in NJ and go to those tracks more than any other. I almost religiously watch the replay show and on weekends I'll check out TVG. I apologize for the long post and thank you for your help.
