In the new Punt To Win article, "Form Analysis and Betting Odds" (5/7 Edition), the author wrote:

"If you are going to win at racing long term you have to be different from everyone else. Be the same and you will get their long term results."

That is solid gold advice, in my opinion.

Often, it can pay to adopt a contrarian philosophy in racing. Just assume that Joe Public is commonly wrong in either his interpretation of form or his application of betting strategy (or both!).

You are not setting yourself against the Tote or the bookies. You are competing against the punting masses who collectively form a betting market. If the betting market was always completely accurate in representing the true chances of each horse, it would be difficult to make any money out of the punt. Fortunately, the markets are askew enough to give us a fighting chance.

So, think of your ANGLE as your edge. It's the difference or the divergance from the popular way that ultimately moves you towards the land of profit.

Just a thought for the day.
