Summary: Pace handicapping is very important in horse racing
Review: This book tells you how important pace handicapping is in horse racing. According to this book, pace handicapping is particularly important and accurate in 5 and 6 furlongs races.I am a serious horseplayer in Hong Kong. This book is of course talking about horse racing in the United States in which dirt racing is the main stream of racing. However, I still find this book useful for horse racing in Hong Kong in which turf racing is the main stream of racing. I also find pace handicapping important and useful even in route races and races of longer distance in Hong Kong (i.e. over 6 furlongs). This may be because of the fact that the quality and power of each horse in each race are very tight in Hong Kong and hence pace plays an important part in a race. This book also tells you a scientific (mathematical) way of pace handicapping by assigning a score to each horse. This method is new and adds value to me. I highly recommend this book.

Summary: The Edge Needed to Beat the Public
Review: To put it plain and simple... If you play the horses regularly and do not own this book, you deserve to lose. If you play for recreation, it's fine to lose consistently. But if you attack the track 5 days a week like me, it takes a higher level of confidence to go back again and again. And you only go back if you're winning. This book is essential for winning. Without it you leave yourself in the dark about countless things which make the track so complex. We're not playing blackjack here. (In no specific order) Track bias, Pace, Form, Sartin, Decision Model, and many other topics make this book one of the best. Do not read at your own risk. It's your money.

Summary: Does "Pace make the race"?
Review: Whether you subscribe to one handicapping theory or many, Tom Brohemer's explanation of modern pace handicapping is the best I've read. Brohamer clearly and succintly outlines his tenents of pace handicapping and makes it easy to convert running times into meaningful handicapping information. He uses charts from actual races to illustrate his theories. The book is easy to follow and understand for semi-experienced handicapper, but takes a bit of practice to convert 1st and 2nd call fractions into pace numbers. The book covers modern tenents of pace handicapping, including running style,class drops, energy distribution. Even if you chose not to do the arithmetic, Brohamer's explanation of pace will increase your profit.
