On Track/off Track: Playing the Horses in Troubled Times by Quinn, James. hardcover edition. ISBN: 0099455025003.

Over the past six seasons, smaller fields, a yearlong racing season, and a decline in racetrack attendance have contributed to lower winning percentages. At last, Quinn helps players to overcome these odds in On Track/Off Track by explaining the latest betting opportunities, with new strategies for yielding maximum profits. First, Quinn goes "on track" to give todays horseplayers an in-depth look at everything handicappers need to know, including the lowdown on the Mighty Pick 3, Beyer Speed Figures, and the mid-level 3YOs. Then Quinn takes a look "off track" and tells it like it is, providing an engaging account of the personalities, events, and issues that make up the exciting daily life of the racetrack. Finally, Quinn gives us a peek at the high-tech high-jinks that are increasingly changing the present and future of handicapping.
