Simple Picking Winners Horse Racing UK

A great title and probably searched by many aspiring punters looking for the winner of a horse race with minimum effort! I do not intend to be sarcastic here, but I do intend to make a bold statement, it’s not simple to pick winning horses. I can argue the fact if you pick a horse at decimal odds 1.20 before a race starts then there is a good chance of the horse winning the race. This is purely based on implied probability and let the maths do the talking.

But these low decimal odds horses get beaten and there is the problem. I have seen horses trading at 1.02 in-play get beaten. Now I have put the myth simple picking winners horse racing title is easy and it is not. So, were do we go from here? How do we address the title of this article? Does the simple picking winners horse racing statement mean anything, quite frankly no!

It all comes down to hard work and I mean studying horse form for a race unless you know that a horse has been running like a future group horse on the training gallops!
Another simple approach is to pick horses trading around decimal odds 2.0 on the betting exchanges. You roughly have a 50% chance of winning the race! But if you bet these horses at higher prices than their implied chance of winning you will make money. I will give you an example of this the horse is decimal odds 2.0 before the race starts. If you ask for decimal odds of 2.2 before the race starts and get matched and the horse you win more money, simple!
