About Jim Johnson
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
I can answer all questions regarding the sport of gambling on either or both thoroughbreds and greyhounds - beginning with the initial handicapping process with regard to decisions on which horse or dog to wager, through the wagering process, and ending with the results and profits or losses from those wagers. See my website at www.puppies-or-ponies.com.

Experience
I have worked in thoroughbred tracks and greyhound tracks for the last 30 years and have been highly successful in making profits from my own handicapping systems, both in sales of my systems, and use of my systems in the wagering process. I publish and sell a "Tip Sheet" for any track in the continental United States and one greyhound track in Mexico.

Organizations
Mutuel Clerk Guild of Arkanas

Publications
"The Perfect Speed Handicapping System" for handicapping thoroughbred races and "Greyhounds - The Ultimate Speed Machine" system for handicapping greyhound races. These are books that I have written and sell on the internet.

Education/Credentials
Bachelor of Business Administration Degree from East Texas College, in Commerce, Texas.

Awards and Honors
"High Five" award for exceptional customer relations treatment by the Oaklawn Jockey Club.

Past/Present Clients
Publishing a "Tip Sheet" in-track for sale at Oaklawn Jockey Club and "Jim's Big Three Best Bets" (also for sale at Oaklawn Jockey Club) on greyhound simulcast races. Have puplished "Tip Sheets" for greyhound and thoroughbred tracks in Arkanas, Kansas, and West Virginia.
