Are you on the information treadmill and still "manually" trawling over Race Cards and "manually"allocating points to handicap each horse?
Does the following seem familiar?
You have a race card in front of you and you wish to handicap each horse by applying pointing levels to various criteria.
For example:
5 points to each horse which won last race.
3 points to each horse which came in 2nd in its last race.
2 points to each horse which came in 3rd in its last race.
1 point to each horse which came in 4th in its last race.
3 points to a horse if it is a Course & Distance winner.
2 points to a horse if it is a Distance winner.
1 point to a horse if it is a Course winner.
etc. etc. etc.
Have you got the picture?....a very laborious and time-consuming exercise indeed.
- Each pointing level has to be “manually” allocated to each horse.
- Each horse’s points has to be “manually” added. and sorted to arrive at a final forecast.
And this is just for one race.
To be blunt.... handicapping horse races for profit using this long-winded approach is a difficult and tedious task. |
