Tips to Handicapping Horse Races
by Kenneth Strong of Ultimatecapper.com
Listed below, you'll find some Horse racing tips
and betting angles that can make the difference between winning
and losing when betting on horse racing.
Tip #1 - Betting Angle: Lone Speed
Front runners win more than their share of races
at good odds, especially if they can get a clear lead early in
the race and make their rivals play catch up. When you look at
the running lines in the racing program, try to find a horse that
has an abundance of 1s and 2s in its running lines. If you can
find only one horse in the race with this type of running lines,
there is a good chance that horse will be the lone speed.
Tip #2 - Angle: First and Second Time
Lasix
There is no question that many horses improve
when given the legal medication Lasix for the first time. But
horses also improve when getting Lasix for the second time - and
at better odds. Bettors who believe only in the first-time Lasix
angle often disregard horses that show improvement on first-time
Lasix without winning. This results in better odds for those who
are playing the lucrative second-time Lasix angle.
Tip #3 - Angle: Layoff Specialists
Horses that show the ability to win off a layoff
of four weeks or more will often continue to win off the shelf
throughout their careers - especially when teamed with a trainer
who has won with the horse off a layoff in the past.
Tip #4 - Angle: Big Win
If a horse has come from just off the pace in
their most recent race and then drawn away through the stretch
to win by more than four lengths, they will often perform well
in their next start, even when moving up in class at good odds.
Tip #5 - Angle: Change in Running Style
When a horse who always runs from well back in
the pack, as indicated by their running lines, suddenly flashes
speed in a race, it can signal that the horse is ready to wake
up and run a big race in one of their next few starts. Similarly,
when a horse that always goes to the lead suddenly shows the ability
to come from well off the pace - they too can be ready to wake
up at a price.
Tip #6 - Angle: The Heart Factor
Always read the comment lines at the end of the
running lines looking for comments that indicate a horse gave
their best. Comments that include words such as "good try", "gamely",
"game try", "good effort" or "gave best" indicate that the horses
is a courageous sort - and these types win more than their share
of races. Horses with numerous comments like the above in their
racing lines are among the best bets in racing.
Tip #7 - Angle: Trouble
The comment lines at the end of the running lines
may also include trouble-related words such as "checked", "steadied",
"lacked room" and "stumbled start". These words indicate that
the horse may have been prevented from winning due to some kind
of bad luck or lack of running room. These horses should always
be given a second look in their next three starts.
Tip #8 - Angle: Rider Switches
When a leading percentage trainer replaces a
lower percentage jockey with a leading jockey, they are usually
indicating that they are trying everything they can to win. Top
riders often have their choice of the best horses and top trainers
often have their choice of top riders. This makes for a powerful
combination. Many trainers tend to win more often with certain
jockeys - and those jockeys may not necessarily be among the leaders.
Watch for hot jockey-trainer patterns.
Tip #9 - Angle: First Time Blinkers On
or Off
When a horse gets the shades on for the first
time they can improve dramatically - particularly if they are
two or 3-year-olds who are still learning the horseracing game.
Blinkers can shield a horse from distractions and help them perform
to the best of their ability. Blinkers off for the first time
can help a nervous horse relax enough to give a top effort. Blinkers
on or off can also stimulate a mental boost to a horse that has
been showing little interest leading to a better effort.
Tip #10 - Angle: Route Horses in Sprints
off a Layoff
This angle produces some big longshots and is
great to use in the spring when everyone seems to be betting speed.
It is easier to get a natural distance horse fit to run a sprint
of six furlongs than it is to get a sprinter ready to go the same
distance. If you spot a horse who often runs a route of ground,
making their first start off the layoff in a sprint, always give
them a second look - especially when in the hands of a top trainer.
