Hello Handicappers!
This blog is designed for people who enjoy betting on thoroughbred horse racing and who are looking for tips and techniques to earn a profit at the end of the day. Being a consistent winner at the track is not easy. Only about 10% of steady horse players show a profit over the long term. In the era before computers and simulcasting, it was relatively easy for a sophisticated handicapper to develop methods to sustain a profit margin at his or her local track since the only ones you had to beat were the people at that track on that day. Today, instead of competing against the local track attendance, you are now faced with competition from thousands of punters from all over the country and even from abroad. Many of them are using high tech handicapping software that correlates hundreds of handicapping factors from enormous data bases to make betting selections. These programs generate vast flows of cash directed to essentially the same horses in a given race thereby depressing the odds to a level where making a profit can be extremely difficult. Facing this new competition and surviving it is a daunting task and one would think that this game is no longer a winning proposition. NOT TRUE! And here's why:
Fifty years ago the betting favorite at all tracks across the country won an average of 1/3 of the races;
Twenty years ago the betting favorite at all tracks across the country won an average of 1/3 of the races; and
Last year the betting favorite at all tracks across the country won an average of 1/3 of the races.
Despite all of this sophisticated technology and the collective wisdom of thousands of handicappers there has been no net improvement in the public's ability to pick winners, only a depression in the amount those winners pay. We will show you ways to still make money in this game and intriduce you to our new book, Practical Handicapping, that we guarantee will make you a better handicapper.
