I believe \"The Form\" has always been the form and the \"Telegraph\" was an independent handicapping paper. \"The Form\" acquired the Telegraph and closed it down. I liked the \"Telegraph\" much more than \"The Form.\"
p.s. TG is state of the art and If you learn about the numbers, you\'ll become a much more successful better. I did !!!!

Please don\'t take this the wrong way, but perhaps you had ample room for improvement. In any event, thanks for your encouragement. I will take your advice and try to learn more of your approach.

Both the DRF & The Morning Telegraph were published by Triangle Publications. Their actual names were the New York Morning Telegraph & the Chicago Daily Racing Form.  The Telly covered the east coast & the Form the midwest & west coast.  The Telly was a broadsheet, the Form a tabloid.

They used the same database, the same employees, the same everything.  At one time Triangle Publications was owned by Walter Annenberg who also owned the Phila. Inquirer & TV Guide.

This sounds right to me. Thanks for the clarification.
