have purchased a lot of horse betting systems in the past. Here I have written my own experiences and reviews about various horse betting systems that I have tried and what I think are winning tips to win

at horse betting. Be aware that not all horse betting systems work. Gamblers who want to

have the best possible chance of profiting from their wagers employ horse betting systems to

help boost their odds. You can take advantage of horse betting systems to help you

increase your chances of winning at the race track. There are many different horse betting

systems available, and they have several advantages over the traditional gut feeling

approach to horse betting. I suggest that you always use a new horse betting system to

continually test for consistency and, if need be, adjust for improvement over time.

By employing a horse betting system, you should be able to keep track of exactly how

much money you are wagering, and where most of your profits and wins come from so

you can decide on better methods of investing your gambling dollars. The disciplined

approach to horse betting using horse betting systems can mean the difference between

throwing money away every week and consistently winning your wagers.

There are several horse betting systems available; some are simple, and some are quite

complicated. I will provide you with a few simple systems to use in this article. Using a few

horse betting systems will make betting at the race track fun.

#1: If you want to win regularly, betting on horses which won their last race is one of our

favorite horse betting system. It is simple, yet very effective! If there are several horses in

the same race which won their last races, you can either bet on all of them or you can

ignore the race altogether.

#2: Look out for horses whose previous outing was in a handicap of similar importance

or value, even if they ran down the field. Things may have gone wrong in running last time,

or the horse may not have 'fired' as was hoped, but it could well pop up at a long price when

the betting public least expects it.

#3: Betting on a favorite. Over the years horses going off as favorites have won

approximately 33% of the time, while second choices, horses with the next lowest odds

after the favorite, will win about 20% of the time, and third choices, the next down in send-off

position, will win the race about 15% of the time. Another angle of this simple system is to bet

the favorite by purchasing a "place" ticket instead. I will generally double my bet if I follow

this system.

#4: Look for a horse that came off a layoff in his last race. If he showed speed and faded

at the end of the race, or has a closing running style and came up short at the finish, then

he might be a horse to bet in his next start.

#5: Find a horse who possesses the lone speed in a race. When you find a horse with

lone speed who is dropping in class or running a shorten distance, then watch out.

Speed wins and when a horse gets a loose uncontested lead in a race they often wire the field.

#6: What are the morning odds on a horse. When looking at the odds of the field as post

time approaches, if you notice that a horse is going off at odds considerably lower than his

morning line, pay attention. The theory is that those in the "know" are expectinga big race

out of the horse. When a horse is tearing it up on the training track, word gets around and

those horses are often bet heavily by folks on the backside.

#7: When looking at a race, find a horse that showed early speed in his last start and held

his position for at least the first two calls. If that horse is improving his post position today

closer to the rail) then he is worth a bet.

#8: If a horse is moving up in class, and his current odds are lower than his post time odds

last time out, then give him extra consideration as a live horse.

#9: A horse racing on a different surface. The theory behind betting a horse making a

surface switch has to do with the likelihood that the trainer has determined that the horse

will improve on the new surface. Dirt racetracks are harder on the horse physically.

The horse will slide more on a dirt track than a turf track. If he has any soreness in the legs,

it will be aggravated by running on dirt, a switch to turf will lessen and discomfort the horse

may have. A horse going from turf to dirt may have more confidence and be sounder than

a horse that has only been running dirt races.

#10: The jockey riding on the horse. When a horse has a new jockey with a higher

win percentage than the jockey in his previous races it is often a sign of good things to come.

Jockeys with high win percentages often get their pick of horses in a race, and factors

unknown to the general public may often be behind their decision to ride a horse that looks

to be outclassed in a given race.

There are hundreds of horse racing tips, but are the services who provide them any good.

By spreading your bets over a number of horse racing tipsters, you are more able to cope

with the ups and downs of horse betting. However, using a few of the simple systems that I

have provided in this article should make you a horse betting winner!

None of the above systems or angles work all of the time, but they might give you a good

starting point for ways to look at a race, and how to handicap using different methods

that have been known to identify horses that might have a winning chance
