One of our most powerful weapons at the races, the Ultimate PP's, are absolutely FREE for the first two months of the New Year! Talk about starting the year 2000 in the right way! The Ultimate PP's are named so for a good reason. Value-added data coupled with past performance lines makes this report the Ultimate handicapping tool. The Ultimate PP's in PDF format (all 3 versions) are absolutely FREE for two months - January and February! If you're not familar with the Ultimate's, than there is a lot you've been missing. Many handicappers wouldn't even consider going to the races without them in their possession. The Ultimate PP's contain a wealth of information available no where else in such a concise, condensed format. Check it out: DETAILED TRAINER STATS - Specific to each horse, the trainer stats let you know how he or she does with this type of horse, e.g. first race off the claim. No one has more influence over the success of the horse than the trainer, so it is imperitive to know his or her strengths and weaknesses. With the Ultimate's you will no longer have to guess. PACE RATINGS - Everyone has access to speed figures, but BRIS Early and Late Pace Ratings let you know how the race may set up. Then, compare each runner's numbers to ... PACE & SPEED PARS - essential for separating the contenders from the pretenders. By having the Pars for the race in the question, you can compare each runner's individual numbers to see which horses are fast enough to win today's race. PEDIGREE STATS - Whether it's a maiden race, turf event, or a two-year-old dash, sire and dam stats are a must for determining the untapped potential of a given runner. Wagering without pedigree stats is like betting blind! JOCKEY STATS - include jockey/trainer combos and rider's record with this horse's running style. There's no better way to get to know the riders at a track! 12 WORKOUTS PER RUNNER - a useful tool for determining true race fitness and for analyzing workout patterns in between races and prior to layoffs. TRACK BIAS & RACE SUMMARY - offers a concise and condensed look at the whole race, ranking the horses in seven unique categories. Detailed Track Bias Stats are provided for both the meet and the most recent week. Know how the track has been playing and use it to your advantage. PRIME POWER - our most predictive rating is available in this report. Prime Power is one figure per horse -- the higher the number the better. It is unique because it combines the most important handicapping factors into a power rating for every runner. TWO FULL MONTHS!

Table of Contents FREE Ultimate PP's! Thank you from BRIS! Wiz's Major Stakes Reports! Ten Pitfalls to Avoid! New ALL-Ways 8.0! Racing Calendar At Your Service	TEN PITFALLS TO AVOID! By Richard Nilsen If you have been playing the races recently and are not satisfied with the results you've been getting, then it definitely is time to sit back and analyze the situation. A wise man used to remind me that horse racing will teach a person to lose better than any other sport or recreation. Truer words have never been spoken because racing can be a real roller coaster ride. Successful players are able to ride out the low times to reach the peak moments. Successful players also recognize their faults and consequently make fewer mistakes than their competition. If you are not getting the results you anticipate, chances are you consistently fall into one or more of the following scenarios: You are picking a high percentage of winners, but your wagering strategies are causing you to lose money. You are betting every single race, instead of looking for prime spot plays. You are employing the same information to handicap that the general public is using. You are swayed easily by others' opinions, lacking conviction in your own selections. You concentrate most of your wagers on low-percentage bets, e.g. trifectas and Pick 6s. You look for the quick fix, like a hot tip from an insider. You blame the outcome on an imaginary "fixed" race, instead of looking at the clues that pointed to the true winner. You fail to notice the bias at the track, resulting in wasted money on horses who have the odds stacked against them. You are betting scared money, having not set aside a bankroll for horse race betting. You have no plan or strategy for wagering. You often get on the wagering line without knowing your bets. It is safe to say that most handicappers have committed the mistakes listed above. Of course, the difference lies in who continues to make the same mistakes and who does not. If you think your selections are good, then consider your wagering strategy. Are you swinging for the fences every time, looking to crush the trifecta, while missing the exacta? Consider knocking your bets down, keying on the Pick 3 instead of the Pick 6 or the exacta instead of the trifecta. The inevitable result is that you will cash more tickets and restore your confidence. Make a New Year's resolution. Check off the scenarios that apply to you, then consider the steps involved to fix the problems. Doing so, you will place yourself well above the general public, which happens to be your competition for the wagering dollar. When you minimize the number of mistakes you make, your confidence will soar because you will be winning more often. Shouldn't that be the game plan for the next century?
