It would be interesting to know from the DRF rep. how they now don't have those records. At that time they were probably on micro-fiche.  |
All They had was just class charts. What if we had Beyer Charts in 1950 and didn't tell anyone ? . We could have made a zillion dollars. The crowd was so stupid. They would have some blind favorite 7 to 5 and there were 14 to 1's. That if they had Beyers, would have been 3 to 1. And we got . 14 to 1 on them. Damn. How was handicapping even done in the dinosaur days?
