Having followed two-year-old horse racing for over 30 years I've learned a few things. Those little gems of wisdom which may not seem so interesting. However, after the race, you realise there is more to this racing game than meets the eye.
I always remember one racing pundit saying that stable form wasn't important. He had some kind of fuzzy logic on the subject which may have held a grain of truth. However, I think if you follow a stable that is out of form then you will bet loser after loser.
Any punter worth their salt will make sure they use UK online bookmakers free bets as it helps keep you ahead of the game and those dastardly bookmakers.
Following this season's two-year-old horse racing I've noted the trainers who are in flying form and those others who are simply struggling to find a winner. The difference between trainers is marked. And if you have any sense, you will be following a stable that's hit a purple patch. As I say to my gambling friends: 'You're not trying to climb a mountain.'
Just find a winner!
Trust me, trying to tip a winner on a trainer out of form is like being stranded in the Alps, you're only friend some goat who lives on a cliff edge.
One major factor is that a trainer with many winning two-year-olds knows what it takes to win a race. In truth, if a horse achieves a certain level of ability it is likely to win a race. A trainer can use form lines to select certain races or horses who they feel they can beat. This is much more difficult for trainers who have a small number of two-year-olds or they have a string which is limited in ability.
You may be thinking this isn't true but if you follow ten stables you will find those with winning horses continue to win. It is as though they have the Midas Touch. This season's star trainers include Clive Cox. He has been in excellent form all season and I can bet he will continue to follow in that rich vein of form.
Compare him to James Tate. Not only has his number of juveniles been depleted but the form of his youngsters has been poor compared to previous years.
If you know little about horse racing, I would suggest you follow a stable that is in form because they are literally hot property. Keep away from those trainers on the cold list.
