Is this book good for me?
I have never read this book but from over 60 years of experience and judging from the title, I would recommend that you should pass on it.
There is no such thing as a "Professional" Horseplayer. Possibly 2% of the betting public will win.
I applaud your enthusiasm but I would not
recommend or encourage a young person such as yourself to pursue a career betting the ponies. I apologize for bursting your bubble.
Horse Racing is nothing more then a recreation or pastime. Actually, It is a dying pastime.
Concentrate on a meaningful occupation or stay or go back to school.
