Tony, I dont have much I can remember to refer you to, other than to say I read everything I could. I think you're a TGraph user and honestly, almost everything I've ever learned dovetails very well with what Tgraph is putting into their product now. If you can work your sheets fully, you're probably there. I think what I'd like to ask Jerry is:

What material provided the basis for where he is now with TGraph.

Of everything I've read I think I got most out of Tom Ainsles book. I think it was called the "The complete digest of thoroughbred handicapping". (I would just state that I did not rely upon him to feed me. I used his book as an appetizer.) I'm not sure where you are, but I read every book on handicapping I could find in the library. The only book I've heard mentioned that I never found was the one TGJB referred to that predated Beyers work on speed figs. So my advice to those new to the game would be the library. Read all they have and request from other libraries those they can transfer. Libraries are all wired now. I enjoyed Beyer's "My 50K year at the races and His making figures book as well. Beyer is great story teller and theres a few anecdotes in my 50k year.
