Blinkers Off
How DOES one learn how to identify a well-condition horse? That's the key. Fotias is the teacher: the subject is form cycle analysis. That factor AND money management are the one-two punch separating winners from losers in the long run. For those who believe pace, deceleration, velocity, feet per second, and ground loss are vital factors in handicapping a race, there's a gold mine of information awaiting you. Fotias believes it is crucial to examine each horse's last three years of performances when the opportunity exists. He adjusts his numbers for factors like wind, weight, track configuration and track variants; what most intelligent, dedicated players have sought for years. The book explores the dozen important variables handicappers should consider for every starter in a race since each has “ a certain amount of energy available to distribute” in the event. Those factors are: a horse's particular running style, the pace demand of the race, distance, surface, bias, the jockey, trainer, weight, post position, final time ability, racing luck, and the horse's current condition. 195 Pages Paperbound 2002
Mob Cop
Subtitled "My Life of Crime in the Chicago Police Department", Mob Cop
tells about former Chicago police officer and Outfit associate Fred
Pascente as the man who links Tony Spilotro, a central character in
Nicholas Pileggi??_??s Casino and one of Chicago??_??s most notori??__ous mob
figures, to William Hanhardt, chief of detectives of the Chicago Police
Department. Pascente and Spilotro grew up together on Chicago??_??s Near
West Side, and as young toughs they were rousted and shaken down by
Hanhardt. While Spilotro became one of the youngest made men in Chicago
Outfit history, Pascente was draft??__ed into the army and then joined the
police department. Soon taken under Hanhardt??_??s wing, Pascente served as
Hanhardt??_??s fixer and bagman on the department for more than a decade. At
the same time, Pascente remained close to Spilotro, mak??__ing frequent
trips to Las Vegas to party with his old friend while helping to rob the
casinos blind. As a policeman he led a double life, doing genuine
police work un??__der Hanhardt??_??s tutelage while at the same time keeping an
eye out for opportunities for bribery and theft. His position on both
sides of the law gave him unrivaled knowl??__edge of the workings of
Chicago??_??s deeply rooted culture of corruption. Mob Cop details
the decline of tra??__ditional organized crime in the United States, and
reveals information about the inner workings of the Outfit that has
never been publicly released. Fred Pascente??_??s col??__orful stories of
crooked cops and danger??__ous criminals make his memoir a matchless
tell-all. Photographs 328 Pgs. Hardcover 2015
Murder Of A Mafia Daughter
Susan Berman grew up in Las Vegas luxury as the daughter of
Davie Berman, casino mogul and notorious mafia leader. After her father
died she learned about his mob connections. Susan then dedicated her
life to learning about Vegas and its underworld chiefs. Her life took a
bizarre turn in l982 when Kathie Durst??_??_??_the wife of her good friend,
Robert Durst, mysteriously disappeared. Durst was a prime suspect but
the case was never solved. After the Kathie Durst case was re-opened,
the DA was about to question Susan Berman about what she knew regarding a
phone call Kathie supposedly made to her medical school dean saying she
was sick and wouldn??_??t be at school. The call was placed the day after
she had vanished. Soon after the Kathie Durst case was re-opened, Susan
Berman was found dead, shot in the back of head. No forced entry, no
robbery, nothing missing from her home. The book covers what led to
Durst??_??s capture. Police records placed him in California at the time of
his good friend Susan Berman??_??s murder. HBO filmmakers discovered a
letter unknown before, written by Durst to Susan, a dead-on match to the
cadaver letter police say the killer sent before Susan??_??s body was
discovered. Photographs 284 Pgs. 2015
