Dan Geer's Pro Rated Longshot

I have been looking for the software version of "Pro Rated Longshots".
American Turf used to offer it but no longer does.
The booklet is still offered on EBay.

I was wondering if anyone has had experience with this software and might know where a copy could be found.
It was originally was offered for use with Windows 95.

When he ran his programming website, the late Bob Pitlak had a version of Geer's software, called Longshots. It wasn't exactly the same, but it did mostly the same thing.

You'd have to find somebody who has a copy. I lost mine many years ago during a computer crash.

Had the software version. I also have the book. Purchase the book, then do it yourself. It's really simple . You can do a whole card in minutes. The software does it in seconds, but going strictly by it's picks, you will miss out on a lot of good priced horses. I also had the Pitlik version, N. G.

I reread his book and started looking at old races to see how hard it was. It takes less then 30 seconds to do a race. Most horses are eliminated. Whether it wins or not, I am not sure.
