If you're trying to win at the track, it's natural to get excited about it. Who hasn't yelled at a horse or a dog that seemed to be taking its time when we have money on it? I'm not a yeller, but I've muttered under my breath at a few when I lost money and it seemed to me that they should have won for fun.
One thing I don't do though is get mad at horses and dogs I bet on. I know they're doing the best they can and they don't know that I'm betting on them. They're just out there running, because that's what they were born to do.
There are a lot of people who ARE angry though, and I wonder if it's losing that does it or if they'd be that way anyway. They yell at the jockey or driver to whip the horse and they call greyhounds "pigs" and worse when they don't run the way they think they should.
There's no percentage in that attitude, let me tell you. The only thing it does is make it harder for you to think clearly and handicap. Studies show that when we're emotionally upset, the thinking part of our brain shuts down and we're left with the old "lizard" brain that just runs on emotion.
That's no state to be in when you're wagering large sums of money. Handicapping is hard enough when your brain is working well. Take away your ability to reason and you're not going to be able to pick anything.
Remember that next time you're at the track. Watch the people who lose their tempers and notice that they don't seem to win. No, it's the quiet people or the people who laugh and shrug off their losses that go home with more than they came in with. The people who yell and get angry look like what they are: losers.

When to Bet on the Favorite in a Horse Race
By: Bill Peterson | 17/12/2009The favorite in a horse race is the horse with the most money wagered on it to win, therefore, the horse with the lowest odds. Favorites win an average of about a third of the time, or perhaps slightly less. If you just want the thrill of watching a horse that you have bet on win a race, then betting the favorite in each race is probably what you should do. On the other hand, that thrill will cost you money over the long run because, though they win often, the favorite is usually a bad bet.
