 Horseracing Hedge Betting, Good Idea or Bad Money ManagementThere has been a lot of publicity lately about hedge funds and I thought it might be a good idea to take a look at hedge betting. In horse racing handicapping, hedge betting is making several bets that offset each other. An example would be a favorite on top in exactas with the lion's share of your bankroll, with some smaller hedge bets on the favorite under. Horse Racing Handicapping Tips for Picking More WinnersIf you want to improve your success at picking winners at the horse races you might want to consider a few time tested tips that have helped many people improve their ROI (return on investment). There is no golden key to success at horse racing handicapping, so this article will not insult your intelligence by suggesting that just by knowing one key bit of information you are guaranteed horse racing betting success. However, one of the best ways to win more is simply to lose less. Daily Double Strategies for Horse Racing Handicapping and Winning BetsThe daily double is one of those bets that has been around for a long time but is often overlooked as a money maker. Many tracks now offer doubles in more than just the first two races, sometimes called rolling doubles. While I recommend straight win betting as the best way to handicapping profits, for those who want to play the exotics, here are some thoughts and tips on playing daily doubles. Horse Racing Handicapping Losing Streaks and LifeDid you ever wonder how other gamblers and horseplayers handle losing streaks? I am in the middle of one, or should I say, hopefully near the end of one, as I write this. Yes even old dinosaurs like me who have played the horses since the chariot races still go through losing streaks. Let me tell you about my, "long dark night of the soul," so that you may get something that will help you through your next rough patch. What Makes a Good Harness Racing Handicapping SystemThere are many harness racing systems on the market and many more that people have created for their own use. This is not a critique of each system, but a set of guidelines for choosing a system of picking winners at the harness races. First of all, there is the question of whether or not a system is needed. Horse Racing Handicapping Tips for the Biggest Intangible FactorIf you are handicapping horse races for profit or betting on the races to make money, you know just how difficult the game can be. There are many factors that go into the recipe for successfully picking winners. Some of those factors, such as speed, weight, distance, purse money, are tangible, meaning you can measure them and quantify them. Even though using the tangible factors is difficult, the intangibles are even harder. They are the ones that test your intuition and memory. Harness Racing Handicapping Systems Tips Using Speed Figures or Times for ShippersHandicapping harness races is a matter of determining how each horse will perform based upon past performances and projected times and pace. The introduction of speed figures has helped some handicappers while others still rely on raw times and quarter fractions. Shippers pose a particularly thorny problem because we are forced to use their performances from another track to try to determine how they will do on a new surface and oval. Horse Racing Handicapping Tips for Using Breeding, Precocity, and Late BloomersThere is money to be made handicapping and betting on maiden races. The fact that maiden races continue to produce a large number of winning favorites indicates that maiden horse races are not as difficult to handicap as some other races. One of the biggest reasons for this is that breeding can be used to such a great extent. Certain sires and dam sires are known for producing precocious off spring. Harness Racing Longshot Winners Often Have One Thing in CommonThe reason is that they are so hard to come by, even though long shots do win every day and almost every card will have at least one race that produces one. The problem is that a lot of harness races are won by favorites or low priced winners. Why Long Shots Continue to Surprise Bettors at the Horse RacesThe art of handicapping horse races has developed over the years into a fine science and art and the advent of computers has improved it many times. Yet, on any given day, at any given race track, horses continue to win races and to pay big prices. No matter how much information is available to the betting public, they still sometimes fail to spot a horse that will win at long odds.
