There are two Andrew Beyer's.

One wrote a book called Picking Winners, a horse players guide.

I remember in one of the stories that he talked about a horse that just did not have the will to win and always came in second. Another chapter talked about the importance of money management. Of course there was ample hints on how to spot bad horses.

The other Andrew Beyer that we know, spends his time trying to make bad horses look good.

Too bad I read the book and can spot the bad horses.

Javelin has a stable full of bad horses.

Now the Andrew guy who wrote the book on horse playing, he also had a section on trainers. While I don't remember any of the trainer stories right off the bat, I am sure that if he was looking at Javelin from a trainers perspective and noted that the trainers stable never even had a show in the field, he would say to save your money regardless of the odds.
