Could it be that he was in "retirement" from betting by then?
Say what you will about him...he was my favorite handicapping author of all time. His wit can never be equaled, IMO:
"If your mail resembles mine, hardly a week goes by without you receiving a letter from some generous benefactor...who promises you untold riches for a scant $20 bill. Why burn the midnight oil, the letter says...when you can find winning longshots in a mere five minutes, by using the well-researched and unconditionally guaranteed handicapping method advertised therein?
Five minutes and you get a longshot. Five months...and you get an eviction notice."
