Laying horses to lose is one of the options betting exchanges have opened up for us and there are now many systems on the market to make money from this form of betting. Many experts talk about ‘False Favourites’ in races. Virtually every race has a ‘favourite’ to win of course but often there is no real sound basis of this – little evidence of why it will win. It’s simply market views which makes the selection the favourite.

Gambling at the end of the day is all about statistics. Understanding what statistics come into play and knowing how to use them will sky rocket you to betting profits. These of course vary by events and sports but the following gives you ideas about the type of data we would look at for horse racing betting.

• The type of race and any horse’s experience and performance in such a race. Is it a short sprint or a long haul? Has the horse run a race over this distance and how well did it do?
• The course. Is it turf or All Weather (Hint: This makes a huge difference!)
• The trainer. Forget the individual horse – how is the trainer performing this season? Statistics prove trainers deliver different types of runners and looking into this can also identify winners
• The jockey. Has he ridden the horse before? How is he performing this season?

Many other variables come into play but this gives you an idea of how you can develop a winning approach and make money with a proven betting system.
