Curly - People on the Thoro-Graph Ask The Experts Board are always very generous with their time , opinions and advice when they don't get the impression that " somebody " is pulling their leg - one reason you may feel that no good advice has been given to you is for this exact reason . Perhaps if you were to reveal your true identity and ernestly engage in a dialog regarding handicapping and wagering strategies you might find those willing to talk substantively - however at present , your post's on this thread do not lack transparency but rather they do lack a certain scincerity .

With that said and along with TG's permission , at some point if you can produce a set of Thoro-Graph sheets ( and drf pp's w/ ML odds) and bring them to the Coffey st pier in the Red Hook section of Brooklyn ( the neighborhood where I reside ) and I'll go through the race card with you and try to identify which type of races and horse's merit consideration . I've worked off and on for TG since 1988 and personally have had of the best people in the business ( incl JB ) provide guidence and tuttledge for sheet reading and wagering stragtegies etc - maybe Jerry himself , who just won the Del Mar Handicapping Contest , might want to join in at the pier and get away from his desk for a couple hours some afternoon this summer - I strongly recommend car or livery serice to and from Red Hook though - public transportation here is not the smart option .

I can be reached here or at the person to person section of the TG Ask The Experts Forum , also by clicking on my name " marcus " at the top of this post will take you to my email address ...

Finally and for starters - Read any Book by Andrew Beyer and also read " Consistent Handicapping Profits " authored by E.W. Donaldson published by Montee Publishing of Baltimore and stay away from the Ragozin Handicapping " book " or others like it ( as has been advised to me ) that are full of inequities and ladden with misnonmers about handicapping and wagering is one tid bit of advice that I would give you even though it's fairly evident that you are not who you porport to be and to prove I'm correct about this is that you ( based on your curly postings ) wouldn't know good from bad advice at this point ... - mark s. natale ( marcus )
