Mine would be;
1 – Look at what everyone else is doing and then proceed in the exact opposite direction.
2 – Never wisen up a chump.
3 – If you don’t have absolute confidence in your own ability, then you are probably doing the wrong thing.
1. Write every bet down.
EVERY
bet.
2. If you have a choice between reading the form and watching it then watch it – don’t be lazy, a lot of it is free on the ATR website, although if you’ve done your homework already you’ll have watched and recorded your views when the race was run.
3. Pay attention to patterns (particularly try to spot horses who cannot handle runs in quick succession) and proven course form.1. Patrick Haslam hiring Tony Mcoy too ride a horse in a seller means the horse is ready too run for its life.
2. Dandy ( the hobbit chav) Nicholls runners in Musselbrough sellers and claimers, he loves winning their, his horses are normally decent horses who get murdered by the handicap or they bleed like pigs when under preasure.
3. The bookmakers form and racing post on french racing availble is not correct as it lacks the form provincal tracks, such info is availble on France gallop for free.
4. Southern trainers at Wetherby, just because they appear doesnt mean their horses are better than the locals.
5. Howard Johnson at Wetherby, he is lethal at the track.
6. Consistant horses in sellers and claimers, this is their level and you know what you are getting.
7. Conistant sprint handicapers ( horses who run into the money regualry), a rare thing and worth following.
8. Knoledge of US based sires and sires in general , allot of trainers are clueless about them despite bloodhorse.com stallion regester. How these people can train horses without a clue as too how far the sires actaully ran, how early and what on surface. AAHH
8.
1) Don’t bet in Sprint Handicaps
2) Always record your bets and analysis your record and the type of races you do well in. (I have a good record in staying hurdle races)
3)Never back horses from a stable out of form.3)Never back horses from a stable out of form.
Twice this has been mentioned now, trouble is often it’s not that the trainer is out of form, it’s that he hasn’t had the right ammunition and this can mask the figures somewhat
1. Make yr own tissue and only back horse if y think is value (obviously a subjective thing)
2. Make studying form a joy and not a task
3. Follow Kingmonkey in the naps competition
what awesome tipping (im green with envy )My fledgling learning curve goes as follows
1) The track condition and the horse behaviour pre-race are paramount.
2) As has been said; you can bet every race, doesn’t mean you should. Pick wise and patient.
3) Stay away from US Racing. It’s like another language.I’m learning fast with my own judgement with little experience. 1 & 2, will probably never change but theres room for a big lesson in 3….watch this space!
Listen to everyone. Many are fools,some are wise, a few are trustworthy.
Only ever own one horse at a time.
Stay with a successful trainer.Go back to him with your next horse.1. Assimilate all relevant information – particularly by watching as many races as possible.
2. Do not be afraid to go against the consensus, and be bold in your opinions. Equally, don’t be afraid to change your mind should new information come to light.
3. Be humble in victory and never,
ever
aftertime
1. Never, repeat never forget to put on your beloveds once a year bet on the Grand National.
2. If there are two horses names that end in the same letter and one wins, yours will be the other one.
3. If you want to ensure breaking even with your wagers always bet a non runner
1. In order to make money betting, you must either have information that is not being used by the betting public, or you must have a superior ability to process the information that is public
2. Picking winners is easy. Beating the odds is not
3. The best handicapping literature in the world are your own records
