Racing Advice – Top 5 Common Sense Tips For
Beginners
Racing advice is critical in horse race betting.
For anyone who enjoys horse racing or are horse racing enthusiasts, there
is both a love of the sport, as well as an ultimate desire to earn some
profit in the course of enjoying that sport.
The horse racing community is tight-knit – punters
and other enthusiasts exchange ideas and advice all the time, which is why
I am in a fortunate position and so are my members.
There is some basic advice that everyone involved
in this community usually shares and there are common sense tips that
everyone typically follows when they are taking part in horse race
betting.
Common Sense Advice For Those New To Horse Racing
The following five pieces of advice have often
kept me and my members from losing our shirts while betting on horse
races. These tips will help the novice avoid many of the pitfalls that
those who are new to the horse race betting business typically fall into.
1. Bet cautiously when the going is heavy
Remember that when a course is saturated, and
therefore the going is soft or even heavy, the form
that you’ve researched related to each horse essentially goes out the
window. There are so many factors related to the fact that a going is
heavy that it’s critical to keep in mind that in an environment like that,
form isn’t something that should be heavily weighted, so much so, that
it’s highly recommended you avoid placing a bet entirely.
2. Apply caution in races with more than 14 horses
The more horses there are on the track does of
course affect the ability to pick the winner, so success rates drops
exponentially. It is normally difficult for beginners to pick a winning
horse in a large field where there are lots of considerations, which is
why it’s highly recommended you completely avoid betting on races that
have over 14 horses in it, unless you have cast iron information and there
is value in it.
3. Prepare a budget and stick to it.
The most important piece of advice is that you
should budget carefully and maintain a betting bank that you will never
exceed. This is something I preach heavily at Grosvenor Racing Club.
Whatever you do, do not exceed your budget as too many people decide to
start out in a huge way, and don’t have enough money to make it to the end
of the day – and it’s always the race that you miss that could be the
value winner. Budget carefully so that you can proportion your budget over
all races, and you will do much better.
4. Listen to the experts
Always locate the best experts, and if they are
sharing advice – listen! There are folks like myself who have
followed horse racing for many years – some of them have even been
involved as trainers or jockeys. They, more than anyone else, will know
what works and what doesn’t on a particular track or under particular
conditions..
5. Course bias
Always keep an eye on what is called course bias.
This is when a horse may have a particular liking or disliking for the
course, the distance and the going, or all three. These factors can often
greatly alter the outcome of a race and is of course, something that I
always take into account when considering which racing tips to give out.
Ultimately, being successful is all about the
above five factors building a foundation for you. Once you're more
experienced you will soon be in a position to move on to the next level.
By applying the above principles, you will be in a great position to
increase your chances of winning.
