"When it comes to handicapping horse racing, one must consider many factors such as class, form, pace, speed, pedigree, trainer, jockey, post position"…FORGET ALL THAT SH*T! Is it important? Yes. It definitely is. But, nearly everybody handicapping the same race as you is looking at the same information as you in the program. I don’t need a program to look at the tote board and tell you that a horse with 3/5 odds has a superior past performance line compared to the other horses in the race. If he didn’t look better on paper than the other horses in the race, then the horse wouldn’t be 3/5! And if the horse didn’t look good in the program and was 3/5 on the tote board at post time, from that information alone you should realize something is up and either pass the race or bet that horse.

Horse racing is unique in the fact that every race is an open book. You can see how much money is put on every horse in a race until the very second a race begins. And that forms the basis of the 8 Surefire Angles philosophy.

There are hundreds of true handicapping professionals and insiders out there. Horse owners, trainers and jockeys all can be considered “sharps”. They know if their horse is primed for a race. The key is knowing when money on a horse is sharp money or if it is simply squares betting the horse because it looks good in the program. Your core philosophy is that instead of doing the grunt work yourself like the squares, looking at past performances until your head spins, you will let the sharps do the work for you and then jump on for the ride when you see where their money is going.

The second basic philosophy is betting on horses that offer value. A horse with a morning line of 8/1 with 3/5 odds at post time can offer value if the signs are right. A horse with a morning line of 4/1 that is 10/1 at post time may offer little or no value at all. By a simple scan of the program and by using all of the information the tote board offers you until post time, you can determine if a horse is providing value. By consistently wagering on horses that offer value, you will win in the long run. It takes work to be disciplined at the track. It is very tempting to bet every single race, especially when racing is live. But, as clichéd as it sounds, you have to think of the track as an investment just like your 401k or money market account. If you consider the track to be a get rich quick scheme, you are going to lose.

The third general philosophy is that you want to avoid the C-Class and lower tracks. The main reason for this is that insiders and professionals do not bet these tracks very often because the heavy money they wager affects the odds too much. Not to mention, the horses at these tracks are not very consistent and are very hard to predict. Once your bankroll starts to grow, you will be affecting the smaller mutual pools way too much and skewing the odds, hence losing your value. Plus, the bigger the track, the more squares you get to take money from.
