Chicago may seem a surprising choice for studying thoroughbred racing, especially since it was originally a famous harness racing town and did not get heavily into thoroughbred racing until the 1880s. However, Chicago in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries was second only to New York as a center of both thoroughbred racing and off-track gambling. Horse Racing the Chicago Way shines a light on this fascinating, complicated history, exploring the role of political influence and class in the rise and fall of thoroughbred racing; the business of racing; the cultural and social significance of racing; and the impact widespread opposition to gambling in Illinois had on the sport. Riess also draws attention to the nexus that existed between horse racing, politics, and syndicate crime, as well as the emergence of neighborhood bookmaking, and the role of the national racing wire in Chicago. Taking readers from the grandstands of Chicago’s finest tracks to the underworld of crime syndicates and downtown poolrooms, Riess brings to life this understudied era of sports history.

Former Santa Anita handicapper and author, Paul Lambrakis, offers up a fresh new approach to horse race analysis. Paul tells readers that in order to handicap more effectively and get better prices, they must eliminate the speed figures from their handicapping. According to Paul, who has been handicapping for over thirty-five years, the speed figures have never delivered on what they set out to do years ago. What they deliver is disappointment and short prices. Paul's method of horse race analysis is practical and straightforward. He tells you what areas of the past performances to focus on and what to look for. Paul will also reveal to you the one area of the PP's that most handicappers overlook. It is here where you will find valuable clues to help you spot those higher-paying horses. Innovative Horse Race Handicapping is tailor-made for handicapping all the major US racetracks!
