A friend showed me TG recently and I am now hooked. Just missed the super-tri at the Derby using Jerry\'s analysis (picked Saarland instead of Proud Citizen...argggh). And hit the tri in the Preakness using my novice analysis of TG (yes I thought magic weisner would post a 3 or such...now to know what a 3 is!). Needless to say TG has impressed me.
So beginners luck is over...I am looking to learn as much about TG as possible. Patterns, etc. Appreciate your advice on where I go from here.
Will obviously read every page in the web site. And will pick my friend\'s brain who has been using TG for years. But are there books on TG? Do I search this forum for specific words?
Hope to be around here for awhile...appreciate your help getting me past being a newbie:)
Read the first 100 pages of \"Dave Litfin\'s Expert Handicapping\" (no jokes about the terrible title). Then read Len Ragozin\'s \"The Odds Must Be Crazy.\" Then go to the Race of the Week archives and read every old race analysis. Then go to http://www.thorograph.com/Ask/archives/index.html and read the old posts from TGJB and me (kidding about second part). Good luck.
You seem to be doing good enough without listening to others. You are better off learning by trial and error rather than the so called \"experts\". Most sheet players are looking for \"patterns\" and \"bounces\" that don\'t exist rather than just keeping it simple.
