The preference in these quarters is for Jerry Brown's Thoro-Graph product(s)... While I have to admit straight out that I have a business relationship with T-G, I also can say I began using the figs after Jerry gave out the 1995 Derby trifecta in an analysis piece in DRF. His confirmation that day of my interest in Thunder Gulch, Tejano Run and Timber Country as the key to plays helped me earn $3,800 on about $100 worth of wagers. I was hooked after that.

Thoro-Graph's trainer and sire profiles and pattern stats are value added elements to the analysis over and above the raw performance figure data that I find invaluable. I will say that I find the dirt figs are generally more useful than the grass figures... (However, I did catch an enormous turf stake exacta in the Four Star Dave a few years ago when Tubrok (20-1) looked great on T-G as a use under Dr. Kashnikow, and I had the $400+ exacta 5x as a result.)

As to the other premium fig products, I haven't looked at Xtras and I don't care for Ragozin.
