While I always advocate in depth handicapping if you're playing the races, some people don't have a lot of time to handicap the horse races so I have a few tips for them. First of all, when you're looking at a racing form or program, it's all about the numbers. Speed figures are one set of numbers that tell a lot.

Even if you manage to make a profit for a while, eventually you lose it all back. If it sounds like I've been reading your mail, it is because I've been there and done that, too. My best advice is twofold. First of all, don't give up. You are on the right track, so to speak, and you are correct in assuming that winning at the races depends upon how you put the factors together.There is no magic in it. It is trial and error and being consistent that wins. But you have to keep notes or records so you will know what worked the best or lost the least and you have to keep refining things. For instance, in your records there should be a note for each race you played and...more
