Horse Racing Long Shot Tips For Big Winners

When it comes to betting on horse races for profit, there are several schools of thought. Some people like to slowly grind out a profit on high percentage favorites while others like the big win with a longshot. While long shots are nice when you cash a ticket on them, the truth of the matter is that as an investment, the old saying, “Risk equals reward,” is demonstrated over and over again.

It all relates to the size of your bankroll, your thirst for thrills or adventure, and your financial plans. Winning longshots are a great thrill, but long periods without cashing a ticket can drag you down. Therefore, here are some tips to help you narrow down your search for high paying bets.

1. Have a plan.

If you are really serious about hitting long shots, you should start by studying them and making a strategic plan. A good system is better than no system at all because as they say, “Those who fail to plan, plan to fail.” Therefore, before you go any farther, answer this one question, what is your plan? Do you have a systematic way of locating good long shot bets?

2. Know where to look for good longshot bets.

Why not start by studying long shots that have won recently at your favorite track? Start by studying the main factors and comparing them to the rest of the horses in the field. Did the horse have any advantage over the other horses that was overlooked by the crowd, such as speed, class, form?

If the crowd underestimated one of those factors before, they will do it again, guaranteed. The whole object of handicapping is to identify profitable situations that will repeat over and over again. With that thought in mind, after you determine if the bettors at a track underestimate one factor, the next thing to do is to make a list of trainers and jockeys who win with long shots.

3. Know who wins with longshots.

Because they share the information with their owners and other people, some trainers rarely win with a longshot. If they have a good horse, everybody on the backstretch knows. However, other trainers are much more secretive and will score with a big winner every now and then. The same is true of jockeys, though all most all of the good ones win with a long shot from time to time.

It is ironic that some of the biggest longshot winners are also ridden by some of the most famous and successful jockeys.

That’s it, master those three tips and you will be well on your way to hitting more long priced winners. Just remember that more fortunes are lost than made betting on horses and bet with your head and never over it. Enjoy your days at the races.

My car is acting funny. I took it to the shop and they said basically it might be the transmission?

I have a 2001 dodge stratus. I pretty much have a loan the transmission is about to go. I need a car to get to college work and life. Should i try and get it fixed or trade it. I have only had it for a year, and once already put atleast 800$ in repairs not including normal oil changes and tires. I need to make a descion fast. im not rich, but i need a car. What should i do about this.

Don’t try to fix this with a tranny oil change, it won’t work. Either repair/replace the tranny or get a different car. BTW if you try to trade this car without repairing it first, it won’t be worth squat.

How does anyone feel about the new 1000 foot rule in NHRA?


I think it is a knee-jerk reaction to what happened to Scott. I’m all for driver safety, but this seems akin to a publicity stunt. If they want real results, then they should apply real pressure were it is needed. Mandating longer run-offs for all NHRA tracks would be one heck of a start. And the tracks that don’t comply, loss their sanctioning.

What is the best way to get into drag racing?

I want to try to get a very good foothold in this sport and was wondering what is the best way to do it. Should I buy a fully built car or should I build one myself. I have about $15,000.00. what class should i shoot for and how would I do. I have no experience in this sport but really wish to get into it and do it right so any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your interest and time,

Greg P.

Put most of your money away. Find a solid older V8 car (Mustang or Firebird etc.) Get a helmet and start bracket racing. As you gain experience and get to know the other competitors, you will figure out the best class for you and then you can move in that direction.
