FREE Ultimate PP's thru Feb. 28

What's loaded with detailed trainer stats, new Brisnet Pedigree Ratings, Prime Power, Track Bias & Race Summary, optional comments and everything a handicapper needs for an edge at the races? Ultimate Past Performances, of course! The same product that has helped many of our members capture some of the biggest handicapping tournaments throughout the country.

Now for the $64,000 question: What also happens to be absolutely FREE and unlimited for the next two months? Yes, racing's greatest special is back! Take advantage of the ultimate in PP's for FREE during January and February right here at Brisnet.com.

CHAMPS USE THE ULTIMATES
"The main use that I had [from the Ultimate PP's with Summary] was the track bias and post position bias info," Steve Walker, NTRA Handicapper of the Year, explained. "That was very valuable to me. In fact, that was the basis of a lot of my picks. I tried to pick horses that were going to be compatible with the bias of a track, not only recently but over the course of the meet."

Players looking for an edge are using the Ultimate Past Performances from Brisnet. Armed with this tool, the answers to your many questions are right there at your fingertips.

How's the track been playing? Has speed been holding up? Who has the best early speed? How does this trainer do under these circumstances? Has this jockey won for this trainer? Does any horse have a Prime Power advantage? Does the pedigree indicate the runner may love this distance or surface?

Those are just a few of the questions that the Ultimate PP's help to answer.

"I used the Ultimate PPs to aid me in having the only ticket in the Pick6. You may use my name in any promotion..." Member Ronald Ruchtie nailed a $197,914 Pick6 at Bay Meadows using these PP's! How's that for a return on investment?

Then, there's Robert Ferguson who won $10,000 this past summer when he captured a qualifying handicapping contest at Keeneland racecourse.

"Whenever I play the Thoroughbreds, I download the Ultimate PP's from Brisnet.com," Ferguson explained. "I use the BRIS Pace Ratings based on how I envision the race setting up. Then, I refer to the Speed Ratings as well as my personal checklist to see if a horse qualifies based on the criteria I am looking for. This method has made me competitive in every tournament I've played."

James Hamon, winner of the recent $25,000 Brisnet.com Online Challenge II, also utilized the Ultimate PPs with comments to earn his trip to Vegas. Check out his story below.

James Hamon of Winchester, Kentucky held on to his narrow lead going into the final week of the $25,000 Brisnet.com Online Challenge II by hitting five winners last Saturday. That gave him 19 total winners for the four Saturdays, enough to capture the contest by two winners over Oscar Hebert of Lafayette, Louisiana.

"I've enjoyed thoroughbred racing for the last twenty-plus years," Hamon stated. "It took me a while to try Brisnet PP's but once I did I was hooked. The convenience of online purchase, the fact that I can get just one track, and the amount of information available in the PP's is why I buy from Brisnet."

"Ultimate PP's with comments is what I prefer," Hamon continued, "all of the normal race info is enhanced by trainer and jockey stats, and the comments point out things I might overlook... I'm looking forward to playing in the National Handicapping Championship in January!"

Runner-up Oscar Hebert also selected five winners in the final week, which moved him up from fifth place to second, edging out Raymond Garrity of Perland, Texas on the tie-breaker rule. Hebert, Garrity and four other participants all finished with 17 overall winners, but Hebert had the highest priced winner at $59.00. Like Hamon, Brisnet PP's with comments aided Hebert in his outstanding finish.

Kristin Slape, who works for a local YMCA in Indiana, captured the fourth and final week of the Brisnet.com Online Challenge II. She was the only contestant in week four to select seven winners from the 10 mandatory races. This earned her the $2,500 weekly cash prize.

"I can't go to the track without the Quick Play PP's," Slape explained. "I've tried other things and nothing is as good. My handicapping has gotten so much better since I started using Brisnet."

Hamon and Hebert join the qualifiers from the April Contest, Gordon Anderson and Steven Davidowitz, in Las Vegas to compete in the $200,000 National Handicapping Championship. Last year, Brisnet members swept the top three positions in the overall championship. This year's tournament will be held at the MGM Grand on January 12-13, 2001.
