Description

An owners inside look at the world of Thoroughbred Racing with an informative and yet comical view of the "Sport of Kings"! Handicappers, casual bettors and horse owners spend lots of time and money trying to correctly analyze the field of a horse race. Currently there are several past performance publications , hundreds of handicapping systems, computer programs, tip sheets, etc, available to those looking for the handicappers "edge". So why is it then, in most cases, that the horse which that has been selected by the betting public as the favorite, loses 3 out of every 4 races? Perhaps that while the general public bases their selections on past performances and trends, they are in fact overlooking the many obstacles a horse faces in the actual race itself. Owning racehorses gave me an inside look at the many reasons a horse may lose a race. Many times the reasons (excuses) are left out of most handicapping equations when selecting the bettor's choice.The reasons (or excuses) I have heard over the years, of why our horses lost certainly must apply to the other horses in the races that lost when our horses actually won. Horse owners will find this book entertaining and informative while handicappers and casual bettors will get an inside look at what owners are told after their horse loses a race. Excuses, Excuses!
