Who are the most respected handicappers that post regularly on PA?

ASIDE from YOURSELF !! Guys (or ladies) who you think have the right combination of good analysis, good reasoning and knowing how to bet?

Just curious if this has been brought up in the past. If not, now it is.

And pardon me if you're one of those that think it's impossible question to answer. I fully realize that many posters don't know one another on the board. Yet, I'm sure some do.

Geez thanks for the kind words guys, your checks are in the mail. Ok, Ok, Richie for you I'll send a money order.
From many times in the War Room I would say sjk for sure. Numerous times he posted (well before) the start of the race his exact play for that race with some very large rewards. I remember a $1,500+ exacta at Turfway. I"m positive that sjk proves that a good "home grown" program can do your bankroll a world of good.

On the public side of the ledger I would say the best results I have seen have been from Bob Pandolfo and Brad Thomas.

I'm not to proud to say I consider and steal from them on a regular basis.

Note---Pandolfo's picks for all Meadowlands harness races are available for FREE on the ustrotting.com web site. Thomas has for FREE suggested plays both win, pic3, exacta on the Meadowlands web site (thebigm.com) every Saturday for various t-bred tracks.

Wanted to add two names that I should not have forgotten to mention in my first post in this thread.

cj who I think has shared more info on this board than just about anyone.
Ian Myers of PTC---has done the horseplayer a HUGE service in starting up and running the BEST ADW with great customer service and features not found any where else. Plus of course REBATES that are the best in the business. I wish him much success and hope he is able to sign up many many more "high profile" t-bred tracks such as the plum KEE meet that he now has.

Note--If your an s-bred player check out PTC for SURE. Has all the harness tracks you need except for Woodbine/Mohawk, The Meadows, and Pompano Park. And with the rebate action I'm getting from the other harness tracks who needs those clowns anyway.

There are others, I'm sure, who would be on my list, but the first to come to mind would be:

Classhandicapper
Tejas Kidd
The Fat Man

Bobphilo
Boonman
CJ
DanG
Hajck Hillstom
Ian w/ PTC
John Del Riccio
Keilan
nobeyerspls
OTM AL
The Little Guy
Tom
46Zilzal

I enjoyed the way the Fat Man could really rip apart a turf event. Tejas Kidd is one of the best tournament players in the country. Siros wouldn't be the same without TLG, regardless of his irreverence for 4stardave. Too bad the majority of the Aq Inner rider colony didn't comprehend the URGENCY of Quality Rail Time as much as tlg does during this past inner track meet.

There are other great handicappers on this board who I've enjoyed reading over the last year but they just didn't come to mind right away.

Oops, clearly should have Cratos on my list. One of the more scientific cappers I've read on this board.

Speaking of top handicappers, where has the magnificent Mr. K. Promos been lately?

Why not have a Poll?
