RE: A Handicapping Breakthrough-
Revised for
2007 and now in e-book form!
Dear Racing Friend:
I know what you want! As a handicapper, you want:
An easy-to-use, quick way to spot the real
contenders in thoroughbred races
A way that also lets you emphasize your favorite angles
A simple, non-technical way to decide when, how much to
bet, and how to bet
My Personal Method is the answer.
To properly use this method, you should be at least somewhat familiar with
horse race handicapping. Let me tell you--if you're a casual player or a "Weekend Warrior," you can easily strengthen how you play with My Personal Method!
Now, before I tell you a secret, I've got to tell you
that My Personal Method is not a system that generates automatic
picks. If you're looking for an old-fashioned system of stiff, no-brainer
rules promising unbelievable longshots race after race, stop reading now!
My Personal Method is not for you.
Do You Know the Secret of
Beating the Races?
The secret is: there is no secret!
Successful handicapping is a combination of many factors and the
experience to know which one to use and which ones to ignore in different
races. One of the biggest problems facing handicappers today is an overload of
racing information. My Personal Method shows you how to sort it
out.
"Don't I Know Your Name?"
Could be! I've written numerous articles for American
Turf Monthly, the Phillips Racing Newsletter, and other
publications. I've been quoted in classic handicapping books by authors
like James Quinn and Dick Mitchell. I've been a presenter at Handicapping Expo
and I'm the author of Handicapping in Cyberspace: The Horseplayer's
Complete Guide to the Internet. I also own and operate
www.handicapping.com, the #1 ranked website on the Internet for handicapping.
I also wrote the first edition of My Personal
Method about ten years ago, and it quickly became a best-seller! Now,
I've updated the Method to reflect the racing realities of today.
I've also expanded the work to make it
easier to use with examples of races that are easy, typical, and hard ones to
handicap! It's as if I'm your personal teacher, standing beside you and
walking you through how to use the Method, step by step!
You Benefit From One Amazing
Discovery After Another
Like many great discoveries, the one that led to My
Personal Method was somewhat unexpected. While I was doing some racing
research, I realized that the order in which you use the basic factors
to handicap--speed, class, current form, and so on--is much more important
than most players think. The sequence in which you look at different
factors and can the difference between winning and losing a bet!
I also re-discovered a great racing truth that is
literally hidden in plain sight and how to use it to your advantage. It's a
factor that most contemporary handicapping literature recognizes, but
fails to use as an integral part of handicapping! Your game will grow
much stronger once you re-discover it as well!
In revising and upgrading the Method this year, I
also discovered something else I wasn't expecting--one
of the easiest and most powerful spot plays I've ever seen! My wife
asked a "what if...?" question. Researching the answer for her led to this
unique spot play. It's easy to understand and use.
No Computer Needed!
One of the most exciting things about My Personal
Method is that you do not
need a computer to use it! If you do use a computer to download
past performances, speed figures, pace numbers, or other racing information
from an online source, you can, of course, incorporate the information into
the Method with ease. If you usually use the Daily Racing Form
