This is a reference book for contests. I wish I had purchased it earlier and used the information to enter DRF/NTRA contests. If you are interested in participating in contests this is a must. Mr. Michaels should have an inexpensive way (web site?) of updating his readers annualy or as needed regarding contests. I don't see any reason future contest "books" need to be priced over $10.

This review is from: Handicapping Contest Handbook, Revised and Updated: A Horseplayer's Guide to Handicapping Tournaments (Paperback)

Helpful info and tips, especially for the first timer on the contest circuit. Some of the contest info is dated however and things change too often as far as venues, dates, and formats are concerned. That part of the book has limited usefulness.
