Let me be the first to tell you that photo is of someone other than Jim. Kind of an amazing error to make.

Thanks very much

The Thorograph figs were dead on on Saturday, especially at Hollywood, and I was very glad that the writer from DRF put my comment about the tgs in the article. It\'s absolutely true that i use the DRF pps for alot of things i consider when looking at a race (pace, running lines, etc) but the tg is the only speed figure I use. I believe the figures are even more valuable in better quality races because those horse are more likely to run to their numbers which is why I tend to do better in these tourneys where they pick better races and why I usually only bet better quality races unless they are in the verticals.

I didn\'t know Peter before this but he seems like a terrific guy.

It was a riot that the picture that they put in the print edition of the drf was of my bloodstock agent and racing manager, not me, but he\'s Italian also so I guess hey, you\'ve seen one Italian, you have seen them all!

Thanks again

Disappointing they put up the wrong picture, but it was still a nice piece. From one Italian to another, continued success in 2014!
