whether you like Beyer numbers or not, Andrew Beyer was the best thing that happened for the horse racing business in the past 50 years. aside from being an aid to betting on a horse race, it also helped those that claim or buy and sell racehorses.
i have personally benefited from his numbers, and I have benefited from handicapping with pace figures the past 15 years. because of this board, i started using CJ's numbers which happen to be excellent. his numbers are now what is used in Timeform. the real good part of his numbers are that he carries more tracks than anyone else i believe and his numbers are as good if not better than anything else. one of the main reasons that CJ's numbers are so good is that he spends time incorporating runups into his numbers and he adds other personal touches to those numbers.
