He Has Fewer Winners, but Crayon on the Money
- Share via
Regarding the July 4 letter by John Snyder in which he calls Curtis Crayon “the clown prince of handicapping,” I refer to the money-won section of The Times’ handicappers’ column. As of July 4, Crayon is leading all handicappers, including chalk-player Bob Mieszerski, in this most important category despite having about a third as many winners. I have always said that anybody can pick a favorite, but it takes a real handicapper to pick longshots consistently.
It would be interesting to see Crayon take on Janice, who is another chalk player. My money would be on Curtis.
