Just wanted to bump the thread.

Steven- I read the book some 25 years ago. I enjoyed reading everything Mark Cramer wrote. Like the old Cramer-Olmstead reports!!!
But I'm sorry to say I cant recall the contents of the book clearly. I can say that I enjoyed all his stuff. I will look through my library to see if I still have a copy laying around

Steven, I looked for my copy of Kinky Handicapping and I can not locate it. Seems many things got misplaced as a result of a move.

Tony, spring cleaning can be such an adventure. lol

Thanks Tony. I appreciate your efforts.

Good idea Conley!! I know I have a copy of kinky handicapping but I cant find it.

I found my copy.
The premise of the book is that various handicapping situations are described by "Kinky" comparisons.
Some of the chapter titles are:

The Inaccurate Conception-Will the horse that was the fastest be the fastest.

Can there be intense action without love? -The tote board in lesser-of-evils races

Menage A Trois - How to manage when there is more than one overlay scenario for the same race

Secret Affairs - The obscure trainer mutuel fund

All in all, a good book with lot of good ideas, even years later.

Thanks Tom. That’s most interesting and thank you for the info.
