5 Simple Steps to Identify Race Winners
1: Only look at one race code each day
There are general similarities in all three race codes Flat, Jumps and A.W. racing should be classed as almost completely different sports. Focusing on just one race code a day will save you valuable time and maximize your focus.
2: (K.I.S) Keep it simple
Start with one race meeting and only look at 1-12 runner races at first; meaning less horses to look at. Most of the time you will be eliminating at least 50% of horses in every race
3: Steer clear of races that are difficult to fathom out either way, such as…
- Low class A.W. races contested by very poor horses (Often these types beat each other every other week making a nonsense of the form book)
- Maiden races full of un-raced horses. Accurate assessment is difficult since no form is available, in reality there’s too much guesswork involved.
- Selling races featuring a bunch of no-hoper horses. Often the form figures will be difficult to interpret accurately, because what’s on offer is very poor.
4: Eliminate the no-hoper horses from a race
Basically get rid of those animals that have a very limited chance, these are animals often rated below the first 3 to 5 in the betting forecast, depending on field size of course.
5: Race conditions
Assess the prevailing race conditions, and ability of the horses left to handle those conditions; are there any proven performers? Likely you’ll be looking at the first 3 or 5 in the betting forecast in more detail.
- Look at factors such as CLASS, DISTANCE, GOING and FITNESS. These tend to be the most important factors regarding a horse’s winning chances.
- Eliminate any horse that’s not proven under the conditions.
- If you’re left with 2 or even 3 horses that appear to be in with a chance, then it’s a case of picking the strongest among them. If you can't separate them, either leave the race alone, or back more than one horses if the odds permit a profit. You can also dutch bet (split your stake between two or more horses) Again the odds must be generous enough to make a profit. Use this FREE - DUTCHING CALCULATOR to work out your stakes.
