Ask the Experts / LEFT BANK / JERRY BROWN

hi jerry,


with the minus 4 1/4 that left bank got in early july, does that mean he beats every famous horse in world history on that day?

i find this absurd because how could anyone have beaten secreteriat in his belmont?

Ask the Experts / thoro vs rags

hi, i just wanted to relate my thoughts on the ongoing bitterness between the two entities.

i have spoken to jerry brown and len friedman both are extremely helpful and gentlemen.

i have found though that some people in the rag office are less than professional and on occasional have bad-mouthed jerry. (it is a free country).

i think the worst thing is for one company to become a monopoly and it is far better to have each organization fighting to provide the best numbers for the clients.

and unless someone can offer a scientific study on who is better i think all the flames on the net are useless.

hi, i see two oddities, first sherpa guide running a \"1\"????

gimme a break a piece of junk like that running numbers once reserved for great horses.

second sarava running a 1/2. i agree with the rag sheets of 4 1/4.

the last half was run in a pathethic 52 seconds plus,

hi, a couple of points:

#1 thoro has made many improvements over the years while rags has stagnated.

their inability to get on the net speaks for itself.

#2 thoro\'s trainer, jock and sire stats are very helpful as are the siblings history.

#3 the only way to prove who has the better numbers is to take a scientific sample of races where there is a big difference in the numbers and show how it would affect the betting.

#4 the one thing that worries me is that it seems jerry spends a lot of time responding or instigating these flames back and forth when i feel he should put that into his work.

#5 badmouthing one\'s competitors is unfortunately a way of life for most, especially on the racetrack. i.e freedom of speech. (when i called rags they siad jerry couldn\'t pay his fedex bill.)

all in all i just want to hear about handicapping.

Ask the Experts / david patent aka "disruptor"

i happen to know mr. patent he visits the ragozin office quite frequently and sucks up to len, hoping that they will throw him a bone.

i wish he would just handicap and stay off this site. he obviously is not making any serious money with all the time he has to b.s.

hi jerry,

i am not a genius, i was never good at math, but obviously you and ragozin have a talent for this stuff. (i buy both products, i like yours because of the trainer and sire sibling profiles)

here\'s my question:
without any b.s. can you in a scientific way explain and prove that you variant making is actually better than theirs.

be it a computer study or pencil and paper method. if so i will exclusivly buy your product.

hi jerry,

i remember that you once said that albert the great was the only horse you had seen that put in 3 or 4 huge efforts in a row.

does war emblem as a younger horse compare to this? and if so should be be looking for the horse to tail-off big time?
