Greyhound Handicapping - #1 Blueprint For Success at the Dog Track

There's an old saying, "Don't reinvent the wheel." Everyone says it

, but yet almost everyone is looking for a new way to win at the dog track. It seems like every week, there's a new website popping up that touts a new book or software program that will pick winners "automatically" with no effort on your part.

Even the smartest greyhound handicappers want to believe that if we could just figure out some "trick" that no one else has thought of, we could pick winners in almost every race. I'll admit it, I've fallen into thinking that way in the past. Like you, there have been times when I've almost convinced myself that there's got to be a way to predict the outcome of greyhound races automatically.

I'm older and wiser and I know that nothing - no matter how new or highly touted it is - can automatically pick winners at the dog track with no effort on the handicapper's part. Dogs aren't that predictable and it takes skill and effort to figure out which of them have the best chance of winning, placing and coming in third.

However, that said, there are "better" ways to do that, whether they're new or old. And from time to time, even after 30 years at this game, I suddenly realize something about handicapping that I hadn't noticed before and use it to make more money. That often happens to me when I go to a different track or lay off handicapping for awhile to do other things and then go back to it.

A fresh perspective can help us see anything in a whole different light when we're stale from doing the same thing all the time. That's when it's a good idea to add one more piece to the blueprint that you use to pick dogs at the races. Of course, you should have a blueprint in place right from the beginning, whether it's your own or one that you've gotten from a more experienced handicapper either in person or from their writing.

This is where the program and the pen come in. If you're not marking your program according to the system that you use to pick dogs, how can you improve it? Write down what you pick and why. If you use another handicapper's system, keep track of what it picks and how often those picks come in - and under what circumstances they don't come in.

That way, when you go back over your programs somewhere away from the track, you'll be able to tell when the blueprint worked and when it didn't and whether it can be refined and improved to pick more winners consistently or whether you need another blueprint. It's not rocket science. It's more like carpentry. You find a plan and construct your project and it works or it doesn't work.

If your plan works, that's great. If it doesn't, you'd better get another plan from someone who knows what they're doing.
