Easy Horse Racing Handicapping Angles For Good Bets
Posted by: willie in Horse Racing Handicapping, horse racing betting, horse racing systems, horseracingAre you looking for easy bets or horse racing angles that make money? Handicapping horse races for profit is a difficult and sometimes tedious task. Even after you work hard to determine which horses are contenders it is often difficult to find one at suitable odds to make it a good bet. There are a few angles that show a profit if you are willing to bide your time and only play them when the odds are right. But before you mortgage the farm and get ready to make a killing at the horse races, be assured that there is no easy money to be found at the track unless someone drops his wallet.
This isn’t a get rich quick scheme, but simply a way to find an occasional good bet. Use it to have some fun and enjoy a day at the races.
The old saying pace makes the race is certainly true in many instances. Until recently, however, determining pace was difficult, time consuming, and uncertain. But now many suppliers of past performances make this job much easier. Some have even winnowed it down to one simple figure for pace and another for speed.
While class and speed are not necessarily synonymous, class and pace usually are. The reason is that the higher class horses are superior athletes and therefore, they have the ability to run faster through each stage of a race. When running beside a horse of lesser class the classier horse will usually put the other away in short order.
To find an easy bet, just find a race with a horse that is dropping in class into a level that it has not competed at before and who also has the highest pace figure in its last race. Often you will find a horse who led briefly or contended with the leader(s) only to fail to sustain its bid and faded in the stretch. That horse may not fade when faced with softer competition. While this sounds quite simple, it isn’t quite as simple as it first appears.
First of all, if the horse really is the best pacesetter it will be bet down accordingly in most cases. However, the public does let one of these slip by once in a while, sometimes going off at attractive odds. To ensure that it is a good bet you might also want to see that it has won at the track and distance it is competing at in today’s race. Another good sign is not carrying more than 2 pounds more than any of the contenders in the race.
If it is coming back to the races with less than thirty days since its last race, that is an excellent sign that it is in good shape and trainer is trying to get it back to win before it loses its physical conditioning. While you may find these horses at almost any track on any given day, a word of caution is in order, don’t bet heavily on them. Use them for recreational betting only and remember, in horse racing, while there are good bets and bad bets, there is no such thing as a sure thing.
