Being a winning bettor on horse races involves more than just betting on the right horse at the right time, also known as pure luck. You need the right strategies and proper execution of these strategies.
Knowing about these important strategies will make the difference between continuously losing that hard earned money and winning for a change. There are some important things you need to look out for so that you will not be sorry you placed that bet.
a) The Horse. This is the first and foremost consideration you have to make before betting. Just by looking at the horses, you will be able to tell which one has the best chance of winning. The best option is to choose one that is not backed overly but has a fair chance of winning the race. The reason for this is that this it is usually the one that has the best value in the end. Although the horse that is backed more tend to win often, they do not normally have good value when it comes to bets.
b) The Form. When checking out horses, look for the one that has winner written all over it. You can always tell this by the shape and form that the horse is projecting. Usually, these are the horses that have shown their capability to win on whatever type of race that they ran. Read about some horse racing news in magazines and newspapers. Oftentimes, you will read about a horse that has won two or more times in any race events. An additional plus is when the bets are started off at much higher prices.
c) The Jockey. Not-so-experienced jockeys are effective if they are riding horses that are sure winners. These usually are the horses that are known to run and sprint faster than others. But then, even the fastest of horse will not be able to make it to first place once the route it is running is not the one it is accustomed to. In this case, the expert jockey is the one who will make all the difference. With proper knowledge of the course the race will take, he is able to manage the horse and work it to its full potential. Do not be fooled by the initial show of how fast the horse is. In the end, even the slower one can measure up to it because of the way it is being handled by its jockey.
d) The Race Track. The horse racing track is another major consideration. This is why you should become an expert in analyzing the track and how the horses will run on them. Take note that a muddy racetrack will definitely not favor the horse that has taken an early lead. Sooner or later, the track will slow it down and will therefore be overtaken by the other horses behind it.
e) The Record of the Horse. The best horse to choose is the one that have just ran lately. Even if the horse is in very good form but has not ran for sometime, there is a possibility that it may not perform well during the race because it is not in the condition for it. Check out past horse racing records to choose which horse to bet on.

Nice work, you did pretty good.
You’re really good man. You’ve got excellent talent.
Most owners actually don't make money racing.
Only about 70% of all Thoroughbreds ever get to the races, and only about 55% of all Thoroughbreds ever win a race. It costs about $25,000, give or take a few thousand, to keep a horse in training for a year; more for the major racing centers like New York or Southern California, less for tracks away from the major population centers. roughly 10-15% of all Thoroughbreds earn enough money during the course of a year to cover their training expenses.
Some owners can recover the residual value of their horse at the end of its racing career by selling, but most racehorses– particular male racehorses– have residual value that is low or even zero at the end of their racing careers.
Basically, most people who are in racing are in it for the excitement, the fun, the competition; and the hope that maybe they'll be the one to strike it rich with a horse like Mine That Bird– or one of his relatives. It's the hope of getting that one special horse, plus the love of racing in general, that keeps people going.
As I always say, there's a village missing it's idiot somewhere and they can usually find them trolling on here. They think that if they repeatedly ask the same question and rave their PETA misinformation, that someone might actually end up agreeing with them. Let's hope not!
I think this gives a good explanation of the definition of the various track conditions:
http://www.ultimatecapper.com/track-conditions.htm
That said, it's important to note that because there is no standard for track composition in terms of sand, silt, clay, loam, organic matter, and every track is different, each track plays differently. To cite one example, the track at Aqueduct has a high sand content because the dates run at Aqueduct are typically the wettest times of the year. So the track superintendent finds it beneficial to have a lot of sand in the track to assure fast drainage. The result is that when there has been a lot of rain, the main track at Aqueduct can be like a wet beach– it packs down and gets harder. You may get faster times on such a track than when the surface is rated "fast".
Churchill Downs historically has had a high clay content in the track surface, with the result that the track can be very cuppy at best of times ("cuppy" means that when a horse strides on it, the hoofprint forms a "cup" on the surface of the track; it has depth, and it holds its shape rather than immediately crumbling) and can be really sticky and tiring when it gets wet.
A lot depends, too, on how the track superintendent deals with rainfall. At Santa Anita and Hollywood Park in the pre-synthetic days, the superintendents had enough time in most cases to get out the heavy roller equipment and "seal" the track before rain came. Basically when they seal the track, they're rolling and compacting the surface so that instead of water penetrating and making the track muddy down deep, the water just runs off the surface and drains away. Of course, the problem with this is that even when they opened the track surface in preparation for the day's racing, there was some compaction and the track would tend to get harder. During some of our rare wet winters, the track superintendent would sometimes have to close the track to exercise in order to do deep harrowing and conditioning of the subsurface and base after the track had been repeatedly sealed.
With synthetic surfaces, I think everyone, including the people who manufacture and install them, is still on a learning curve of what has to be done to keep the track consistant and safe in all kinds of weather.
From a handicapping standpoint, the important thing to remember is that each track is unique, and that you have to become familiar with what the weather conditions do to the the individual track surface.

You have to sign up, but it's completely free. There's no fees for watching or betting. And they have like 60 tracks you can watch. It's a great service.
Several tracks have their own broadcasts on their website, but xpressbet is great because you can get all the tracks in one place and place a bet if you'd like.
Perfect.

Hi,
A jockey has a very dangerous job, but a very important one. He must guide the horse in the correct way as to know how his horse runs, and performs during a race. It is his responsibility to get his horse in the correct position, and know how to guide him through traffic going at very high speeds while the rest of the field is fighting to do the same. Jockey error has played a huge roll in injuries to other jockey's and horses. The horse does the running, but it is up to the jockey to know how fast the horse runs, and when to ask the horse for his best without compromising. So the roll of a jockey is very important. Without a jockey it would be like racing a car with no driver. Hope this explains it to you.
i don't like the gambling, the horse race is alright, mainly only good in the Kentucky Derby when you are really rooting for a horse to get the triple crown
You can go to the site for the Daily Racing Form at it should answer your questions also at any track the program will have instructions inside the cover explaining how to read the form and also how to make all wagers including the exotics.
hm i couldn’t tell the difference between photograph and painting comparing the final resault.
This is sick
You need to go to a reputable trainer and tell him you're interested in buying a horse. Tell him how much you've got to spend and he'll do the rest. He might have a horse in his yard that's already for sale or he might go out and buy one for you.
Don't go buying horses over the internet!
The flat trainer Richard Hannon has had some good successes with cheaply bought horses in the past. He trains in Wiltshire.

Don't forget you'll have to contribute towards the horse's training expenses every week so the more people involved the cheaper it will be.
woww that’s really relax and beatiful soung .good picture of jhony depp !
