My feeling on handicapping books in general is that when you start out, the good ones are an excellent short cut towards understanding the game better. But once information is public, it slowly loses value. That's partly what I've been talking about when I said the game changes. Not only does the sport itself change, the values change as handicappers improve or certain factors become more or less fashionable. It's finding the holes or blind spots in what's popular and accepted now that is the fertile ground for value. But the more info out there, the better it gets, the more generous good handicappers are with their general knowledge or knowledge about specific horses, the fewer holes will be available.
