Even Money

by: Dick Francis, Felix Francis
The latest Francis (family) outing goes to the races with a bookmaker this time. The odds are high reader interest will be lost long before the story is over. As the Francis hero often is, he is saddled with a disabled (in this case bi-polar) wife (with victim written all over her plot-wise), unhelpful inspector plod type coppers, and a range of villains who simply show up and beat the c**p out of him. Over and over. Unfortunately, the story founders on the day to day work of the bookie (going here, going there, next Tuesday at someplace else) which takes up all the air in the room.

Seabiscuit: An American Legend

by: Laura Hillenbrand
I could see that this book has rave reviews, and there is not much more that I could add. Here on the East Coast we only have heard of War Admiral. I never heard of Seabiscuit until the movie came out some years ago. I was not thinking of reading it until the local reading group at the library had it as a selection. It's a winner! The story is wonderful, and true. Laura Hillerbrand can write non-fiction in an exciting way that captivates the reader. She knows her horse racing but she doesn't deluge the reader with a glut of "racing-ology".

Betting Thoroughbreds for the 21st Century: A Professional's Guide for the Horseplayers

by: Steve Davidowitz
Steve Davidowitz's revision offers a comprehensive tool for conquering today's challenges and opportunities at the track. This book has a broad appeal to anyone interested in the game, no matter what level of proficiency. I found Betting Thoroughbreds for the 21st Century wonderfully entertaining, really well-written with a wealth of great personal stories, and full of critical historic information necessary for those who love this sport. It should be a handbook for anyone aspiring to greater handicapping success and a means to finding the key to picking winning contenders - or simply a valued reference book for your library.
