do this and do that

If you always obey when they tell you to do this and that, you are a robot. You only see black and white and nothing else. In life, you have to experiment and investigate to learn new things.

Either you learn on your own or you learn from the wisdom of those before you. If you stick to a guru for your horse racing system, you’re dead. People who don’t try anything new have hit a dead end and find life sucks. These are the people who fear stepping out of their comfort zones and their very old horse racing system reminiscent of their great grandfather’s time. You have a museum piece on your hands. It is true that the system must have proven its worth many times in the past, but times are changing. Not all systems have shielded methods.

Racetracks are getting sophisticated, the rules are changing and the horses are neck-and-neck in pedigree, impeccable training and care. Horse racing, once the preserve of kings, lords and ladies of the court, and the landed gentry, is now an international pastime for millionaires and poor alike. Anyone can spend a day at the races without waiting for a royal invite. If you have the ticket, you have a seat. If you have more money, you get a luxury box. Or you can watch the race in your own home.

Even horse racing betting has gone digital. Anyone can place a bet online if they have the funds to back their bets. There’s a convenient digital computing device that’s changing the landscape. With all these dramatic transformations, a horse racing system must also be updated to keep up with the times.

What they count and what you should control

This is what they will tell you about the horse racing system:

1. They will tell you not to bet beyond your means. You will learn that greed does not pay, so control your betting system and do not get infatuated with every race and powerful steeds. There is no law that requires you to bet on all races.

2. They will tell you not to look at the forms all the time. You will learn that betting on a hunch drains your bankroll. The feeling that diminishing returns give you is similar to a broken heart. You will learn quickly, don’t worry.

3. You will be asked to bet according to the odds. You’ll learn that it takes time before you can master the technique, so don’t worry. Once you master it, you will live with the odds throughout your life. So slow down on the first try.

4. They will tell you to watch out for a horse that is peaking. You will learn how to follow a horse’s career by reading about its exploits and learning to read the race form. If the horse is progressing from 4th, 3rd to 2nd, he’s already set for 1st, he’s peaking. You have yet to look at other horses with the same streak. It does not mean that there is only one horse that is peaking.

5. They will tell you that they have the best horse racing system. You will learn to ask for proof of your claims. Before you buy a system, ask for a free card, and if you don’t get one, better watch out.
