The Professor graduated from Georgia Tech in engineering and holds an advanced degree in Statistics. He was once employed by IBM as an engineer working primarily with computer simulation models.

It was during this period that he developed an interest in horse racing. He picked up his first copy of the Daily Racing Form and was fascinated by the statistical data. For twenty years, the Professor has been associated with the Thoroughbred horse industry.

He trained thoroughbreds as a public trainer on the Kentucky-Ohio circuit. In the 80's he and a partner owned a successful bloodstock agency specializing in stallion season sales and broodmare mating analysis. The Professor was the first to commercially market DOSAGE DIAGRAMS, a highly popular pedigree analysis method in the mid 80's. After the Thoroughbred market changed direction in 1986, the Professor turned to his first love, handicapping.

The Professor has read most of the books written on handicapping. The speed handicapping techniques of Andy Beyer first caught his attention. Later he discovered a pace handicapping method taught by Dr. Howard Sartin, known as the "Sartin Methodology". He found that Sartin's methods, used primarily in California, had to be revised significantly to be effective on Midwestern and Eastern tracks.

During the last six years, the Professor has worked on perfecting his Pace Analysis computer program by handicapping and testing thousands of races . He is a master in interpreting how a race will unfold from start to finish. The Professor is not only highly skilled in pace handicapping but is a student of all aspects of the game including money management, odds line development, trainer and jockey angles, etc.

This internet site has been a pipe dream for the Professor for several years. Computer software and hardware technology advanced enough in the last two years to make it possible for him to finish developing his project. We hope that you enjoy and benefit from the handicapping information at this site.
