Handicapping Horses
Can someone recommend a good handicapping book or website? Aside from the DRF.

Re: Handicapping Horses
there's not really a good mathematical approach to something like horse racing which by its nature is not a mathematically logical sport.
the free Acrobat file on DRF called "Winning Techniques" is a reasonable start: http://drf.com/row/fan_ed/winning-techniques-2004.pdf other sites which I visit for general coverage include: http://www.bloodhorse.com/ http://www.espn.com/horse/ http://www.thoroughbredtimes.com/ http://www.brisnet.com/ I've read a few Beyer books in the past but don't recall anything definitive about them that made me a 'better bettor'. Good value as a pastime, but not as a manual. I love the drama of racing itself, but there is virtually NO good way to make money on it in the long run. |

Re: Handicapping Horses
Thanks for your input. The sites are very useful. I plan on using the info for the one or two times I go to the track this summer.I am not looking to make money in the long run. The amazing thing about the poker world is that everyone is so obsessed with + EV, that they forget that some things are just fun and entertaining.
