    A good system I've used if I'm totally lazy (in Australian racing) is to simply look at the betting market. Two good methods are: 1) bet the favorite if its odds are about $2 and the rest of the field is $7 or higher. 2) bet the top 3 fav's in a trifecta or quinella if their odds are $4 or below and the rest of the field is $10 or higher. I've had a pretty good success rate with the second method and it's better to apply it to the higher class races.

    If anyone has a winning horse handicapping system, he should not publish it. It will quickly become a losing system from overuse by others. I have picked up some useful angles (mainly from the toteboard) but I will never, for obvious reasons, reveal these to anyone.

    jackscratch-- One that has been good for me is to develop a "stable" of horses I follow and bet on. I create the stable from viewing races and from charts, and then throw out those with less than 10% wins. Have many others that I use at the track, but don't have the free time to go regularly anymore. Too bad, as wins seem to be more plentiful when you are "in tune" to a track.

    ok this is how i do it! I take a horse with a odd numbered name, lets say the horses name is happy jack (9 letters) and if the horse is an even numbered horse lets say #2 for the race hes in then i bet on him! if more than one horse fits this description take the horse with the better odds. If both horses are good odds then tri fecta or even super fecta over a # of races its a long shot on the super fecta but the tri fecta works well when you add in the favorite too! try it b4 you think im crazy! Ive done good with this system!||win.gif' border=0>
