Finding Your Rock Solid Racehorse

Anyone read this book? Only $20 so I might order it anyway, but I said that about Handicapping The Wall Street Way . The reviews are very good, but only 2 and they might be fake, who knows?

Here is another new handicapping book that I briefly considered buying. But then I looked at the first sentence of the book description on Amazon...and I read this:

"The horse racing industry has been a pioneer in interactive media, information networks, and their deployment."

After that...I have a hard time taking this author seriously.

Thask is speaking of this one:

The reviews of the one I was asking about were so good I thought it was thask's book and he was using Victor Woodall as a pen name

And here I thought Thaskalos' pen name would be:

Delta EMD4 Vic.


Boy was I wrong

Neither review was a "verified purchase". I'd be highly suspicious.
