Tips And Tricks For Horse Race Handicapping In A Paddock Room

By Paul Cox


Horses are such elegant creatures. Whether you lean on to hobbies like horse back riding or watching horse races, there is just a certain elegance and thrill watching them run freely. The sport has been around for so long. This is why there is a need to keep these creatures safes and well taken care of.

These animals are usually kept in a stall or a fenced area. The paddock room has a lot of attached meaning to it. Back in world war two this used to be the code name for war room in London where Winston Churchill met with his officials, at least twice the whole duration of WW2. In the case of this article, it is a place where horseplayers would put their wagers on the winning bid.

They call analyzing the possible outcome of the game as handicapping. There are also least effective methods like randomly punching holes on a piece of cardboard, but you do this if you do not bother losing or winning. There are patterns relating between different games and races that may help determine how likely a horse can win.

A very important publication for this is the Daily Racing Form. Enthusiasts are well versed in reading the information provided and can use this for handicapping. While this tool has proved to be useful over the years, personal analysis based on experience plays a large part. Winning not only depends on the horse but also the trainers, jockeys and the playing field itself.

This type of gambling, while it is legal there are still some types of bets that are not allowed in some states. Bet types range from the number of entries you bet on and the winnings depend if they place first, second or third. They can range from good bets to lottery like betting.

In the world of equestrian race, the goal is to limit the effort of handicapping and then restricting yourself to bet between a lesser number of entries. This increases your chances of winning. Most of the high stakes players do not bother with maiden entries or horses that have only started the sport.

Having a winning horse is a matter of breeding and training. Many of the literature for this sport state that there are a set of factors to consider. There are the number of consecutive wins and placements of the entries. Even the surface of the platform is taken into account. These surfaces are either dirt, grass or synthetic.

Players consider so many things which also include who trains the horses and who rides them. Winning percentages come into play for both people too and not just the horse. Some may even have a tally board for all the factors that they might find necessary to find the right bet. If you have this chart of things that determine the horse that is most likely to win, based on carefully calculated factors, then pick the horse with the most check marks.

Gambling can be addictive. Strategy and playing with chance are more addicting than the actual winning. It is probably the allure in trying to control an uncontrollable predicament. This is all true to any type of betting.
