If you want to find a system for easy picks at the horse races, there are plenty of them out there, but be warned.
Though it is possible to find a handicapping system that will pick winners without too much work, the winners you get won't pay enough to offset the costs of your bets.
In other words, it is easy to find cheapo winners, but the real battle is to find good priced horses that make you a profit.
Go to the horse track or OTB any day and you'll see plenty of people cashing tickets and hooting and hollering about their winners.
At the end of the day, however, if you ask them how they did, if they're honest, most will say they are down.
How does that happen? They went the route of easy picks.
Maybe they bought a tip sheet and bet the best bets or maybe they read the consensus in a form.
It doesn't matter how they did it, they bet the most logical most obvious contenders and they paid the price.
You soon learn at the track that if your horses don't pay the right price then you'll pay the price.
Therefore, any horse racing system that is worth its salt will help you to pick good priced winners, maybe even long shots.
A good longshot system is wonderful when it works, but picking longshots consistently is very difficult.
You will either have to sit out a lot of races or back a lot of losers to get that occasional big winner.
It depends upon the kind of player you are.
Do you want a lot of winners and moderate prices, or do you want big payoffs with less frequency of wins? There is nothing wrong with either choice, it is just a matter of personal preference.
While you are deciding which horse racing system is right for you, let's clear the air about what you can expect from a real good horse racing handicapping system and what you won't get.
No one on earth to the best of my knowledge has ever sold a guaranteed system that will automatically make you rich.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but that isn't going to happen.
The truth is, if anyone had a system that automatically picked winners and made big bucks, they wouldn't sell it.
On the other hand, there are people who sell horse racing systems that will pick more winners and help you to become a better handicapper.
That is what you want.
As they say, give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.
The same is true of picking winners.
