Need's a lot of improvement!!!.......1997-09-18

My name is Michael J. Trohimczyk, an Adjunct Faculty member at Henry Ford Community College. I have taught computer's at the college level for the past 9 years & used this text last year. I ran into several computer problems, i.e. journal entries would be posted but would not show up as expected. Also, my student's told me on several occasion's that the appendix's were confusing. I revised my entire course syllabus this term to resolve these challenges. Although I revised my syllabus, I now have 80% of my student's with either a BAD DATA DISK OR PROGRAM DISK. The software has too many restriction's that CANNOT be overridden. I am spending at least one hour a day extra helping my student's because of computer software problems. Unless there is a major revision in this edition, I am NOT planning on using this text for future courses

Book Description

Breeding the ultimate racehorse has challenged the minds of breeders and theorists for more than 200 years. Now, for the first time, students of bloodstock breeding have an opportunity to examine the theories of genetics, biomechanics, nicking, dosage, inbreeding, outcrossing, statistical methods, female family lines and heart score. The works of Bruce Lowe, Federico Tesio, Harry Laughlin, Joe Estes and many more are examined and evaluated.

Here, in one volume, is a wide and varied assessment of the major breeding systems and theories, as well as the history and background of each. The writers give readers all the necessary information they need to implement the theory and make it part of a breeding program. They also verify the relative scientific validity of the theories and various approaches to breeding. This, more than any other factor, sets this book apart from other attempts to offer breeding theory to owners and breeders. The authors ask, "Does this really work and, if so, how often has it been proven or disproven?"

a highly valuable ingredient to develop a breeding philosphy.......1998-11-04

this is without a doubt one of the most valued books I have in my "racing library". I race and breed quarter horses, but because of the lack of material on that specific subject I am often drawn to books on TBs. The most amazing aspect of this book is that if you changed the names and dates, Mr Tesio's ideas and predictions are extremely accurate in todays world. The openess in which he shares his ideas and the details of his breeding program are great . Very concise and to the point.

Book Description

Joe Taylor knows what it takes to breed and raise champions - both Thoroughbreds and Standardbreds. For 40 years, he managed the world famous Gainesway Farm in Lexington, KY. He's been associated with winners of the Kentucky Derby, Breeders' Cup, Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, Hambletonian and the Kentucky Futurity. Joe Taylor knows that a horse's chance to become a champion starts long before it goes to the track. It begins with the breeding, the care given to his sire and dam, the quality of the grass on which he grazes, the care and training received as a foal and the environment in which it is raised. Neglect any of these things and the horse will never see the winner's circle. Joe Taylor's Complete Guide to Breeding and Raising Racehorses tells you how to select the best land for your farm and design the best layout for your paddocks, pastures, buildings, roads and lanes.Taylor explains how to select the correct stallion for your mare and how to get your mares in foal and keep them that way. He tells you how to care for newborn foals, raise strong weanlings and correct yearlings, get your yearlings ready for the sales and have your horses reach their peak at sales time, plus much more.

Book Description

One-time amateur boxer Jack Doyle, an irreverent and rebellious advertising account representative, goes to work one fine Chicago day and finds his desk—and his job—both gone. A two-time loser at the marriage game as well, Doyle, usually ultra-confident, fishes himself out of a bottle to take stock, realizing, "with a thumping finality, that Life sure as hell did have his number and was crunching it."

At loose ends, Doyle accepts a most unusual offer from an acquaintance, Moe Kellman, "furrier to the Mob," to fix a horse race. The context of making the deal, a Cubs game at storied Wrigley Field, sets the tone for the drama that follows. Thus begins a chain of events that will lead the FBI to Doyle's door where they "coopt" him into a quest after people who are maiming or killing thoroughbred horses for their insurance values. Their number one target is a loathsome media mogul who can't bear to lose...at anything.

Built upon recent factual events, spiced with satire and peppered throughout with engaging loonies, Blind Switch is a noteworthy first novel with a hero forced to ask in its ultimate line, "Where have I gone right?"

Saddle Up and Hold On - It's a Fun Ride!!.......2004-12-13

I love books that deal with horses. I especially look forward to those which deal with horse racing. Add to that setting a hero with some serious defects in his character, an interesting scenario which puts him on the side of the angels, several villians whom you will love to hate, some people you will genuinely care about and a generous sprinkling of serious nut cases and you have a very readable, thoroughly enjoyable first novel by John McEvoy. I have read most of the writings of the late, great Dick Francis and in my judgment, references to his writings in comparison to this story is comparing apples to oranges. Both authors have an interesting way of telling their story, but there is little comparison to how they go about it. This is a story that will hold your interest, tickle your funny bone and satisfy your sense of justice. That's a trifecta worth betting on!!

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Races.......2004-08-14

Blind Switch is worth the read! A lively book with full blown interesting, and some despicable characters, this book kept me going. McEvoy makes the world of horse breeding and racing a seductive one and one I would like to visit again. He blends the good guys with the bad guys as the story weaves from Chicago to Kentucky and en route we watch the main character grow and ultimately flourish.
A fast and refreshing story!

A must read.......2004-07-28

Blind Switch is a great ride - lots of unusual and goofy characters - some are people you'd like to know, including Jack Doyle, the main character. He starts out in a "blind switch", essentially boxed in by life, though in part by his own doing. He evolves and revolves through the world of thoroughbred horse racing. You will too. Great suspense, life lessons, and peripheral romance. You'll hate the bad guys and enjoy the good guys, with lots of laughs. The Chicago references are fun for us Chicagoans. Ever wonder why horse racing is actually a clean sport? Because the FBI, the mob, and the industry itself need and want it to be. It's a great read! I didn't want it to end. I'm waiting for McEvoy's next move.

Fans of the late Dick Francis will thoroughly enjoy .......2004-07-28

When Jack Doyle is downsized from his corporate Chicago job, a friend tells him he can make an easy $25,000 on a horse race. He accepts the job and the fix is totally successful but the FBI has an idea what he did even though they have no evidence to convict. The agents "convince" him to gather evidence that rich and powerful Harvey Rexroth is having his horses killed for the insurance money. One of Rexroth's employees, manager Aldous Bolger reports his suspicions to the FBI

Bolger agrees to help Jack get hired by Rexroth and Doyle but finds he likes and respects the man who loves the horses as if they were his own. The FBI believes the leader of the horse killing ring is former jockey Ronald Montvedt, a stone cold killer who will do anything for money. When Bolger catches him trying to kill a stallion, the ex-jockey maims Bolger. Doyle is now determined to take Montvedt and Rexroth down, no matter what methods he has to use.

Fans of books of the late Dick Francis will thoroughly enjoy BLIND SWITCH, a novel about horses and people who care for them. The protagonist undergoes a metamorphosis as he stays in contact with the beautiful animals and goes from being a shady character to a person who wants to see justice done. John McEvoy has a unique voice that will win him a place with many fans and BLIND SWITCH deserves to win an award for best new talent.

Modern Pacing Sire Lines

ASIN: 0929346475

Book Description

Author John Bradley looks at the pedigrees, records and stud performance of the top 50 trotting sires of the modern era. These are current sires or sires that are close up in the pedigrees of today's horses. Bradley analyzes each horse sire by sire, dam by dam, cross by cross and nick by nick. He suggests links in the pedigree of each horse leading to its success; reviews the bloodlines that seem to work best with each stallion and mare line; and discusses strategies to take advantage of the strength of each horse. The book's handsome, simulated-leather binding makes it an ideal gift for fans of the Standardbred. It's the perfect companion to Bradley's Modern Pacing Sire Lines.
