Why expert handicappers and beginners love Pace Pals

I'm taking a break from wrapping. Sheesh, Christmas is just work when you have no little kids at home anymore. Back then, it was all nothing but a pleasure.

I posted way back that our program one day had something called "Pace Pals." It only happened on one weekend day but now my husband said they have them for each race on the Hollywood Park web site. I know most people can spot the running style of any horse but when you are trying to help new people get into racing, it's a good help for them.

I told a friend who is new to racing and she and her husband used it last weekend and they both "get it" now. And it helps the "teacher" a lot too. Much easier to help them see how to handicap. Any small help is good when you are trying to teach younger people to handicap.
