Horse Racing Tips

(October 25,2018)--Horse racing is a great way to spend the afternoon with family and friends. The best part about it is that you get a chance to make some money by placing horse racing bets. Advancement in technology has changed the betting game, and now most bets are placed online.

If you are new to horse racing, then you are probably asking yourself, “How do I increase my odds of winning?” Most of the people will often place small bets and therefore are unconcerned with how much they make, but if you want some serious cash, you need a solid strategy before placing your bet.

Winning horse racing bets are all about selecting the right horse, and the first tip relates to the trainer.

Horse trainer

Winning races boils down to how often the trainer has been winning races. If a trainer has been associated with winning a large percentage of their mounts, then the probability of them winning in the next race is higher. Many people constantly make bets, but very few actually take the time to do their homework. While getting all the information you need about a trainer won’t guarantee you a win it increases your odds. Information concerning the trainer can be found online or by speaking to other fellow betters before the race.

Dig into previous horse racing results

If you are totally clueless which horse to bet on look at the results of previous races. The results might read like lost two - won one – lost one – won two; look for a pattern. While this is very subjective, it can provide some clues on the performance of various horses. You can get details on previous horse races at horsebetting.com.
