From the time horse racing and horse race betting came into being, people have been looking for a perfect system, a system that will enable them to pick winning horses.
In order to simplify this ever-tangling situation, data was collected and tedious analyses were conducted in order to device a perfect system.
But unfortunately there is no perfect winning strategy.
However, we've included some of the most popular strategies for the rookie.
Here they are: Fell short in the Last race! With this angle, you should be looking to grab a horse that was looking to win its last race but faded away, right at the end.
You need to take care! If the horse showed some speed and came up just a few inches short at the finish line, this might just be the horse you need to be betting on for your next race.
The Z Pattern The Z Pattern strategy refers to horses that began with a winning streak.
These horses somehow lost their momentum during the middle of their careers and then came back in form again to win a few races.
What you need to know about horses that exhibit the Z pattern is that they generally come back strong from lean periods.
Horses with Lone Speed Records Some horses might not have had great racing runs but have got impeccable lone speed records.
If you come across a horse that is dropping in class and losing distance, you might need to take a look.
If the horse achieves an uncontested lead, he might just end up winning the race for you.
Early Speed - Post Improvement This is one of the most popular winning betting strategies and has found many winners.
In order to apply this strategy, you'll need a horse that has shown early speed in the last start and has maintained his position for the first few calls (at least two!).
This kind of horse is always worth the bet.
Check if his class is improving.
If his current odds are lesser than earlier odds, consider him as a 'live horse'.
The Angle of Jockey Switch A Jockey with a high win-percentage will always get to choose his own horse.
Jockeys are experts at choosing horses and often take into consideration, factors that are beyond the understanding of normal public.
If you come across such a scenario, make the most of it.
In short, when you see a winning jockey switch to another horse, make the most of the situation! Bet on him! There are a number of other online horse betting systems available online.
Besides them you can try a bit of 'handicapping' as well! Use the above mentioned systems and you'll sure be able to convert some bets into great wins!
