I have pretty much kept myself from betting in poor races these days by this I mean races where there are far to many inconsistent horses in them. It is to hard to work out form or anything in that and even when you do because they are so inconsistent your hard work can still blow up in your face.



A couple of mates of mine use a system and it does filter out alot of horses in races and I do believe it has worked out quite well for them. this is how it goes The horse has to have a win percentage of over 30% and a place percentage over 50% the trainer has to be within the top 10 in the state and the jockey within the top 10 also. I know it can restrict the odds as obviously a horse with those kind of stats will very rarely pay a huge ammount but like I said it is a formula that has worked out alright for them.


Other than that I can only reiterate what a couple of the others have said never bet with more than you can afford and to be on the safe side only ever take what you want to bet with with you leave the loan and rent money at home that is some advice that I should have listened to a few times myself thankfully it hasn't hurt me but it can and it will.
