* Money Management Simply Explained.

A quick but important introduction:

You will see the Exacta mentioned a lot on this site but it is for a reason as the winrate for boxed exacta's averages between 30% and 50% of all races run eachday. And if you can get the exacta logic will tell you that if you have the field for3rd you then have the trifecta and if you have the field for 4th you then have thefirst 4. Dependant on field sizes and thanks to the flexi dividend if you tie the raceup right you can get as much as 33% of the div for as little as a $10 investment.

Don't know which races to bet or what bet type to try? Basically the real key isMoney Management which means you only bet 5% of your bank on each race youwant to wager on until you make your profit for the day and by limiting your riskyou are actually giving yourself a greater chance to win and once you have reachedyour target goal for the day just pull out. Pretty simply stuff really but a lot ofpeople just don't get it which is why the bookies are doing very well and alwayshave done so.

But how do you approach it? Well this is an example i will use for exacta's but itworks for any bet type. My bank is $200 and am basically spending either $6 a betor $12 a bet so its either 3% of my bank or 6% of my bank. I am taking the exacta'seither boxed for $6 for 50% or $12 for 100% or in the format of depending on theselections but for example if the selections are 1, 2, 3, 4 I take 1 and 2 for 1st and 1, 2,3, 4 for 2nd which costs $12 for 200% of the dividend. So basically if I am betting in$6 units it gives me 33 chances to hit a good result or series or results to get me tomy goal for the day which is $50 or I bet in $12 units which gives me 16 chances toreach my goal. Today I outlayed $24 and picked up a good div in the first 2 races of$46.10 x 2 which equals $92.20 which gives me a profit of $68.20 and I pulled outat that point. The best time of the day is to bet early and if you look at the liveresults you can see patterns developing and you should be able to decide at aglance if something is working at a particular meeting or not. This all applies to anybet type it does not matter if its win bets or trifecta's or first 4's. Really its prettybasic stuff and if I can get it anyone can. Limit your risks and you are laughing thereal trick of the whole exercise is pulling out when you hit your target which is nothard to do in practice over time. Spend small and make those little profits which alladds up to reaching your goal for the day.

Let me be a bit blunt.

We can help you win with the information we provide on this site but first of allwe need to be on the same page.

On this website we believe in making small reasonable bets and making thosesmall bets into good wins and believe in having a reachable goal for the day andthen just simply pulling out and coming back the next day or next week once youhave reached that goal. I can tell you right now you will not make a fortune in aday, but you can turn those small wins you do have into a lot of money over thecourse of an entire year.

Click here to read what you really need to know about horse racing.

If you agree please keep reading...

And before we really begin...

Had a lot of questions come through the website and to answer the main point.

Think of your betting as a business and its your business to make a certainamount of money each day. Aim low to begin with say $20 bet small and reachyour goal and at the end of the year you would have $7300 even if you only betonce per week that is still $1040 a year. See small wins really add up and I am ofthe opinion that the less you spend the better. You can actually have good winsspending a small amount of money. Use your head and remember the key ideaof when you make a bet you are really in fact making a business descision.

Hope this helps and remember always set achievable goals and you will succeed.

Really on this website this is the best advice I can ever give you. Set your goal forthe day be it $20, $50 or $100 and NEVER push it, just walk away once you havereached it. Discipline is always key. The longer you play the greater chance of youlosing. 98% of gamblers lose and only 2% win consistently and these 2%understand completely the concept of Money Management this link is for thereally detaied article. And a simpler article about this topic of Money Managmenthas just been added the bottom of this page. And one final thing please alwaysremember to NEVER bet more than you can afford to lose.

Now lets get into it all...

And please remember these are only suggestions which are working well acertain percentage of the time and you can read about those percentages below.You may have your own methods which work well for you and my advice is onceyou have found a system that works for you stick to it 100%.

Win Bets:

The selections are given in there exact order of preference and the Top Selectionhas a high win rate generally from the lowest win average of 20% to the highestwin average of 40% of all races run each day followed by the Second Selection ofwhich the Top 2 win rate generally ranges between 30% to 50% followed bythe third section and so on. The best strategy may be to back the Top Selection asit has a high win rate and if you wanted to cover your bet and greatly increaseyour chances of winning back the Second Selection as well it all really depends onprice. You will see the stat's for the Top Selection and the Top 2 Selections givenon all of the Results Pages. If you are looking for even more value then you mightlike to look even wider at the third and fourth selections but again it all depends

pdfcrowd.com

like to look even wider at the third and fourth selections but again it all dependson price and sometimes it can also depend on winning betting patterns which maybe able to guide you in the right direction and you can read about these below.

Please also note you should also pick the races you bet and a high percentage ofthe time this will be dictated by price the selections are paying. A bad strategy is tobet every race. That will not get you anywhere and does not make any sense at all.

* Please note as of the 24th of May 2015 you will see a change in how thelive results are given on the website. After the winner result you will see a numberfor example Winner (1) $5.30 the (1) represents the winner came from the first tip inthe sequence. So (2) will represent tip 2, (3) tip 3 and (4) tip 4. This information isgiven to help people clearly see which horse in the tips sequence actually won andit is also very helpful in tracking winning betting patterns.

The Live Results on the website are very important as you can constantly see at aquick glance how things are going. For example if Exotics are doing well at acertain venue then you may like to play the Exotics there. For example at a certainvenue if only Win Bets are doing well then you may like to try that approach, if theTop Selections are doing well at a certain venue then you may like to back the nextTop Selection. If the 3rd and 4th selections are only doing well at a certain venuethen you may like to even try that approach. And also if a certain venue is notdoing well at all results wise it may be wise to avoid betting at that venuealtogether. Just use your logic when it comes to this information as PATTERNS arevery IMPORTANT!

Exotic Bets:

Remember the ratings are given to you as a guide and if you are taking exotic betswhich you can read all about below please don't be afraid to add in your ownselections as well.

Trifecta's:

I have had a lot of messages from visitors about how I bet and to be quite simpleit is just a numbers game. I mainly play Exactas and have just started takingTrifectas with a lot of success. If you had been taking the Trifectas with theselections 4 by 4 into the field and if you had done that for example onWednesday the 4th of March you would have scored 20 trifectas in total with thetop payer being over 1 grand. For a flexi percentage say $10 you would be buyingdepending on the size of the field say a 10% share and some of the bets wouldhave provided a small loss, some would have provided a small profit and otherswould have provided a very good profit. Really the whole secret is once you havehit a result that puts you in front and gets you to your target goal for theday simply pull out and forget the races until the next day or week. It really is alljust a numbers game but what should also be mentioned is that you need to pickthe races you bet on and price should really dictate that most of the time. Whywould you invest in a race if the chances of you getting a loss return are high. WithTrifectas you do however have the advantage of bankering the favorite orfavorities to maximise your potential return and you can read about thosemethods below.

Another interesting way to play the Trifectas is to banker the Top Selection if it isa clear short priced favorite into the next 3 selections for second into the field forthird.

Or you could banker like I do quite regulary just the Top 2 Selections from the restof the selections for second into the field for third as I have also been having a lotof success with this method recently and it costs very little money to play.

And finally if all the selections are all at a good price or you just want to chanceyour hand you could banker the 4 selections for first by the 4 selections forsecond and the field for third. But please be aware that the best way to use thismethod is in a bigger sized field of runners.

These are some of the methods I use and for $10 depending on field size and whatcombination I use I can get as much as 33% of the dividend.

Trifecta's example:

If the Top Selection is a clear favorite and if the selections are 1, 2, 3, 4 youwould have:

1 for first / 2, 3, 4 for second and the field for 3rd.

pdfcrowd.com

For the main way I play myself using the Top 2 Selections and the biggest trifectaso far i have gotten is $4000 for a flexi percentage, but this does not happeneveryday of the week, you would have if the selections are 1, 2, 3, 4:

1 and 2 for first / 1, 2, 3, 4 for second and the field for 3rd.

* From the stats from the website on a normal day you would get the trifectausing this method between the lowest average 20% to the highest average 40%of all races run. Not that you would bet every race and you would be picking theraces you are actually betting on as well, but just remember to set you goal targetfor the day and once you reach it pull out. Also keep an eye on the Results Pageson the website and if you see the Winner result as (1) or (2) and there is an Exactaresult given as well then this is a race you would have won the trifecta on by usingthis method.

And if all of the runners are at a good quote or you just want to chance your handyou would have if the selections are 1, 2, 3, 4:

1, 2, 3, 4 for first / 1, 2, 3, 4 for second and the field for third.

* Please note trifectas in this format are only really suitable in bigger sized fields.

Exacta's: This is my favorite.

HIgh strike rate, great dividends, highly recommended.

With the Exacta's I normally just take the Top 2 Selections from the 4 selectionsfor a couple of times both if the selections are clearly ahead in the betting marketso for example they are the 1st and 2nd favorite. Or if the Top Selection is reallyshort I will just banker it from the other 3 selections for a couple of times thedividend. Or I will simply just box them all up if they are at decent prices and againits a numbers game hit a decent result and pull out. But in saying that its anumbers game you do need to pick your races why would you invest in a race ifthe potential for a low or loss return are high and you can more about findingvalue in races below. With Exacta's they do not cost a fortune to bet and i juststop betting once I have reached my target money goal for the day and it all isreally as simple as that.

There is also a good rule when it comes to Exacta's if the runners are short bankerand if they are rough (i.e. all at a reasonable price) then box, but you really shouldjust use your best judgment here as even if you box the 4 selections and a $3winner gets up and the runner which runs second is paying for example $5 the winthe Exacta will quite regulary pay above $12 which means a profit for you, it won'tbe a huge profit but every dollar adds up in this game.

* If you were to box Exacta's with the selections from the site you would onaverage have a win rate of between the lowest average of 30% and the highestaverage of 50% of all races run each day and it costs $6 for 50% or $12 for 100% ofthe dividend and you would be doing quite well overall. Some of yoursuccessful bets would provide a small loss, some would provide a small profit andthen others will provide a really good profit and once you have gotten thatreally good result simply pull out. You can check all of the Exacta dividend's on theResults Pages to get a feel for just how well they pay. But as a side note to thisyou really should be picking the races you are betting on as to find value. WithExacta's you do have the advantage of when there is a short price favorite orfavorities you can banker the selelections to maximise your potential return andyou can read about these methods below.

Exacta's example:

To banker the Top 2 Selections which is the normal way I play if the selections areboth very well in the betting market and if the selections are 1, 2, 3, 4 you wouldhave:

1 and 2 bankered for first from numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 for second and this costs $6 for100% of the dividend.

And to box all the selections you would have.

Numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 boxed and this costs $6 for 50% of the dividend or $12 for 100%

Or alternatively you may prefer to just banker the Top Selection if it is really short.

pdfcrowd.com

So it would be number 1 bankered from 2, 3, 4 and this costs $3 for 100%

* One final thought about Exacta's is that I find I have really a lot of successbetting early in the day, why I don't know, but this seems to happen veryregulary. I also use Ubet to place my bets which is the new name for theQueensland TAB and I am really happy with the dividends they offer and they arealso the dividends that are also posted on this website.

First 4's:

I was talking to Bill Macdonald today who does the ratings for the website andhe told me that what he likes to take in small fields is the First 4 in a 2x4xfieldxfieldsystem and for $10 that will buy around 4% to 5%. I did a very quick check just onthe first 2 races I saw and they paid $562 and $395 and he said that $1000+payouts in small fields are not uncommon. There are so many possibilities and thisis just another one. You don't need a fortune to turn a profit there are just somany combinations you can use for a small amount of money just remember yourtarget money goal for the day and pull out as soon as you have reached it.

There are again multiple ways you can wager the First 4 with the selections.

First 4 example:

If the Top Selection is very short you would take if the numbers are 1, 2, 3, 4:

1 bankered for first / numbers 2, 3, 4 for second and the field for 3rd and 4th.

The main way which Bill plays and has success with using the Top 2 Selections:

1 and 2 for first / numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 for second and the field for 3rd and 4th.

And the third alternative would be to have:

1, 2, 3, 4 for first / 1, 2, 3, 4 for second and the field for 3rd and 4th but his can be amore expensive proposition and may not be worth the risk.

* I know of some people who use the website and take first 4's for 1% which canbe as low as a $2 spend it all depends on field sizes and if they manage to get a$2000 result, which does happen from time to time, they get back $20 which isa profit of $18 which proves that you don't need big sums of money to turn agood profit.

Quadrella's:

We have a lot of success with Quadrella's on the website and to take everyselection in each leg will cost $14 for 5% of the dividend. We have achieved manybig wins with the biggest collect being in excess of $20000.00. I have been alsohaving success lately taking the field in the last of the Quadrella which will mean alower percentage dividend, but on the upside you also have the potential for agreater payout as longshots seem to have a habit of appearing lately in the finalleg of the Quadrella. Just keep in mind Quadrella's are a low percentage bet whichis why they pay so well. They are a good deal of fun for a small amount of moneyand can provide a good return but they can be risky which is why you shouldalways play them for a small amounts.

Final Summary:

I hope this information has provided you with some good ideas and strategiesyou could put in place on how to best use the ratings. Remember if you have aquestion or problem we are only a click away and you will get an answer. The mostimportant thing you should remember and I have mentioned it numerous timesabove, is set your target goal, reach it and then pull out and come back tomorrow.This is the best advice I can ever give you. Set your goal for the day be it $20, $50or $100 and NEVER push it, just walk away once you have reached it. Discipline isalways key. The longer you play the greater chance of you losing. 98% of gamblerslose and only 2% win consistently and these 2% understand completely theconcept of Money Management. And please also always remember to NEVER betmore than you can afford to lose.

Money Management In Quick Simple Terms:

You can read the the entire article here on Money Management and it will give youa lot more information and ideas. This is just very quickly what moneymanagement means for me.

So For Example:

My personal starting bank lately is $200 and I spend either a $6 or $12 bet becauseI play exacta's and my goal for the day is to make $50.

So $6 = 3% of my bank

And $12 = 6% of my bank

With $6 I get 33 chances to win

And with $12 I get 16 chances to win

And I know I am going to more likely hit a really good result or series of results inthose amounts of chances as the odds are really more in my favor.

If you dash into betting with $200 and you start betting for example $50 a betthat's 4 bets only, 4 chances only and 25% of your bank. You might get lucky butthen again you might not and you are going to lose your bank quickly ifsomething does go wrong as the odds are less likey in your favor.

So wouldn't be smarter to get more chances which always helps and at the sametime you are protecting your original bank because you are only betting in thesame increments.

A lot of people swear by only using 1% of there bank but 5% really seems to be thenormal which most experienced gamblers I know use and I would recommendusing the 5%.

Remember in horse racing its all about managing risk and about giving yourself agreater chance to make it to that target goal you have set for yourself.

You don't need a big starting bank $200 is a lot of money and mind you I have notlost my starting bank in over 2 and a half years since I started doing this full-time. Iknow people who use the website who have a starting bank ofsometimes $20 and just bet on win bets and take the exotics for small flexidividend percentages having a little fun and trying to make a goal they have set forthemselves.

And one final point if you do put a money management plan in place like the one Ihave just mentioned I can say with a 99% degree of certainity and if you stick toit, you will never have a day again where you can say you lost all of your money onthe one day, it just won't happen, that is unless you have the unluckiest run oflosing bets recorded.

And that's it.

I hope all this information really helps you.

Thanks and happy betting always,
