A Unique Work

The first book from noted handicapping writer George Kaywood. You've read his writing in American Turf Monthly, and the Phillips Racing Newsletter.

This book should help handicappers throughout the world. For the Internet enthusiast who thirsts for information about virtually every important aspect of thoroughbred handicapping, it doesn't get any better or fresher. This is a remarkable compilation. It fits a need and does it well." ---Gaming Today

Experienced Computer Users Find It Indispensable

The Internet is so large, and growing so fast it would be almost impossible to visit every place on it that offers racing information. 

Handicapping in Cyberspace offers an excellent place to start to introduce you to the many amazing places on the 'Net, and becomes a handy guidebook to refresh your memory from time to time. Even with electronic bookmarks, no one can remember what information is at every site. 

The Reviews from Users and Pros Say It All !

"...I must admit I was reluctant to purchase HIC at first because of the dynamics of change that would make a book of this sort obsolete in short order. I also thought that this book would tell me nothing, like some other computer-directed books. I was wrong on both counts. It has been an invaluable resource for someone like me, who does not have a great deal of time to look around. The material is well researched and well presented. In short, WELL DONE!" --- D.R., Warwick, RI

"...Kaywood is an extraordinarily bright and articulate handicapper. Both these commendable traits come shining through in Handicapping in Cyberspace. Kaywood is eager to show the rest of us how to do it, and he does so in the kind of refreshingly clean, smart, and concise language that seems to abandon most books on computers, or handicapping, for that matter. Would-be high tech handicappers who have searched in vain for an Internet site to transform them into winners should instead locate a copy of Kaywood's definitive work. It's a 9." --- Dick Mitchell, Winning Thoroughbred Strategies

A Fabulous Time-saving Resource  

"Looking for entries and results or information about horses running internationally? It's here. (Just before the Breeders' Cup, you may seek data on horses competing in England, Argentina, Australia or Ireland, for example.)

Many of today's horseplayers take advantage of live racing -- audio and video -- broadcasting. Kaywood tells you who operates them and which ones require membership. Some of the feeds require various payment methods for opening an account -- but which? The book lists this. Cautioning that individual tracks often change their policies about showing races, Kaywood explains that some sites offer historic racing videos, which might help a handicapper get a good visual of the tracks he's interested in. Here too, there is input about sites from Australia and the United Kingdom.

Need a listing of online information providers like BRIS (Bloodstock Research Information Service) or Equibase or how to find information on the (Ragozin) Sheets? It's listed. What about publications like the Daily Racing Form or the Bloodstock Journal? Kaywood lists them, what they provide along with racing news sources nationally and internationally.

In short, George Kaywood has taken the cumbersome task of Internet searches apart and put it into perspective. His book lets you skips over all the advertising and extraneous cyber information that shows up when you go to your favorite search engine, and gives you a leg up on compiling your own list of favorite and helpful places." --- Howard Schwartz, Gamblers Book Shop, Las Vegas, NV
