Ken Massa of HTR -- he taught me there's so much more to this game than merely analyzing speed, pace, and class ...

It would have to be the cappers that published in the NY-NJ rags i.e. NY Post, in the 1970s. I combined what I read, with entering-watching races as a job. After reading PPs, I could usually understand how conclusions/picks were arrived at, and began using same mentality.

Tom Ainsile, Sam Lewin, and the great Phil Bull. Ainsile influenced my early overall comprehension of handicapping. Lewin, the former racing secretary at Monmouth Park helped me immensely to understand “class” and the great Phil Bull connected the “dots” for me in a way that no other author/handicapper ever could to this date.

How is Scott these days Steve? Living in the east, I don't know much about the guy, but from what I have read he certainly sounds like a sharp handicapper.

Ray Taulbot was my introduction to the racing world in the early 80's. I used to read every article and was fascinated by the businesslike manor he spoke of through the medium of turf speculation...as he used to say.

I used to go the the American Turf Monthly office at 505 8th avenue in Manhattan ( a few blocks from Penn Station). I would order a bunch of articles and back copies every week or so. Those were great days. the funny thing is that my love of the game has not weaned since .

Has anybody ever read "How to WIN the PICK 6: Horse Racing's Big $$$ Payout" by Steven Kolb? All of the reviews seem really good; but I thought I'd ask a more trusted source in the people here.
