As 2016 comes to an end, it’s time to look back and review what was learned from this year’s horse racing season. I was never able to come close to my $750 trifecta win earlier in the season. Tracks like Del Mar, Woodbine, Belmont, and Aqueduct proved to be a challenge. I have yet to find a formula […]

In July 2016 online horse wagering became legal in the state of Minnesota. Being an avid horse race fan, I took advantage of the new law and opened an online wagering account on TVG. For the most part it has been a good experience being able to pick and choose the races I want to watch […]

Every year I try something new to help improve my horse wagering results. This year I’ve been using the new TrackMaster® EquiGraphix report from Equibase. The report costs $3 for one race card. It includes the TrackMaster Platinum PP’s and 4 additional online screens of info, Bubble Capper, Signals, Speed/Class graphs, and Player graphs. The BubbleCapper is […]

When the local horse track is closed for the season, you have to look elsewhere for horse racing action. In the winter months, the only US tracks that are open are in the southern half of the country. On the weekends you can always find a large track that is open. But on a weekday, […]

Canterbury Park’s 2015 live horse racing season came to a close yesterday (Sept. 12, 2015). This year, I decided to keep track of my wins and losses, so that I could measure my wagering performance. It is now time to look back on the season to see how I did. I visited the race track […]

Since I haven’t posted here in a while, I thought it would be good to recap my 2014 horse wagering season. They are just past the halfway mark at Canterbury Park here in Minnesota and I’ve been to the track about a dozen times. I can only recall about three times where I left with more money than […]

It seems like the more time I spend handicapping a race, the less likely I am to win any of the wagers I place on that race. Lately, it seems like more long shots are coming in and ruining all of the research that I’ve done. The fastest horse with the best record and best […]

My new favorite bet is the 10 cent superfecta box. Picking the top four horses out of a group of six or eight is a challenge that can payoff quite well. The cost for this wager is $2.40, not much more than a $2 win bet. Sometimes I will bump up the wager to 50 […]

It seems pointless to analyze the results of a horse race, because you can’t place a post-race bet. The outcome of every race if different, even if you ran the same horses in back to back races. But, it may help you figure out where your thinking was wrong and maybe help you place better […]

For the 2013 horse racing I set up an online wagering account at Canterbury Park. I’m using a Samsung galaxy tablet with a 7 inch screen. It only works over wifi when you are at the track, but it sure makes placing bets easier. I found that it works better in some locations than others. […]
