More than 20 professional programs are freely available to download, which can allow readers to easily apply the methodology introduced in the book. This book can be divided into three main parts: horse handicapping (Chapters 2-6), wagering (Chapters 7-9) and theories in practices (Chapters 10-11). Chapter 1 will explain why long term gains are possible in horse racing. About horse handicapping, we will start with analysing racing forms in Chapter 2. Other handicapping factors such as weight carried, jockeys, trainers and pedigrees will be discussed in Chapter 3. Some advanced statistical methods, such as chi-square test and kernel smoothing, will be introduced in Chapter 4 to further analyse those handicapping factors discussed in previous chapters. The following two chapters are about probability estimations. In Chapter 5, normal distribution and multinominal logistic regression are introduced in estimating winning probability of each race horse. In Chapter 6, we will talk about some methods in misconceptions in estimating placed probability. Two main concepts in wagering, Kelly criterion and hedging, will be discussed in Chapters 7 and 8. To hit exotic pools, those theories in combinatorics in Chapter 9 will definitely help the readers. The author will share his experiences in betting syndicate in Chapter 10, and tell you how to be a successful professional horseplayer in the last Chapter. Some readers may find the mathematics in this book difficult, but the free program will take your pain away and do all the calculations.

Download or read book Computer Based Horse Race Handicapping and Wagering Systems written by Bill Benter and published by Diana. This book was released on 2020-02-14 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gambler Who Cracked the Horse-Racing Code Bill Benter did the impossible: He wrote an algorithm that couldn't lose at the track. Close to a billion dollars later, he tells his system. This book examines the elements necessary for a practical and successful computerized horse race handicapping and wagering system. Data requirements, handicapping model development, wagering strategy, and feasibility are addressed. A logit-based technique and a corresponding heuristic measure of improvement are described for combining a fundamental handicapping model with the public's implied probability estimates. The author reports significant positive results in five years of actual implementation of such a system. This result can be interpreted as evidence of inefficiency in pari-mutuel racetrack wagering. This paper aims to emphasize those aspects of computer handicapping which the author has found most important in practical application of such a system. Also included the Bill Benter "What Are My Odds?" Presentation at ICCM in 2004.

Download or read book A Horse Racing System Based on a Statistical Approach to Selection and Staking written by Lucky Lew and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horse Racing systems are notorious for working for short periods of time or over historical data but they always seem to start to fall over when you start to place money on the selections. This is usually because of back fitted results and the systems producer having no background in statistics and probability. It has also been identified that horse racing punters are quick to pick up on anomalies which slowly erode the odds and value. The system explained in this book is very different to the selection processes of most systems as it takes into account statistical analysis and horse racing truths which have held constant over time and makes money from them. This Horse Racing System is consistent, easy to follow and profitable. It is all of these things because the rules for it are not subjective and are all based on statistical analysis. It also uses at its heart principles and statistics which have been known to all horse racing punters, but it uses them to profit.

Book excerpt: A day at the races, with its colorful variety and fact-paced action, appeals to people from all walks of life. Not surprisingly, the idea of going home with a few more dollars than when one arrived is part of horseracing's charm. In this entertaining but substantive volume, two distinguished economists, who happen to be horseracing buffs, outline a tested strategy for placing bets that will increase the reader's chances of a happy outcome at the track. The authors are the first to point out that getting rich at the racetrack is unlikely.

In the process, the reader learns some of the most important measurement techniques in the social sciences, as well as the basic methods of market analysis.

Download or read book The Most Powerful System Ever Devised for Thoroughbred Race Betting Plus 18 Spot Play Angles written by Ken Osterman and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-09-06 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book by sports and horse racing handicapper Ken Osterman, he focuses exclusively on thoroughbred handicapping, and has put down in writing the one system he uses at race books throughout Las Vegas, Nevada. He has given this method the audacious title of, "The Most Powerful System Ever Devised for Thoroughbred Race Betting." In many ways it is the most powerful method because it is based upon solid mathematics and statistics. It can also be applied at any track, at any distance, for winning horses, three year old and upward, carded at any track in the United States or Canada. This method can be used as a handicapping system all by itself, but what makes it even more attractive as a handicapping method is that it fits with other methods. You can use this method first, and then apply your favorite handicapping approach to the remainder of the field. Alternatively, you can do the opposite, and start with your handicapping approach. After finding what you believe to be the winner of the race, you can then apply this method to your choice. This will give your selection greater validity and strength, or it may give you a reality check by pointing out the weakness of your choice. Along with the title method, there are a wide range of spot plays (angles) in this book, covering claiming races, sprints, speed, turf, maiden races, two year old races, long shot methods, beaten favorites, and other categories. The following are the titles for each spot play in the book. The New Low Claiming Price Angle The B6 Sprint System for Thoroughbreds Bet the Fastest Horse The Route Speed Method Class on the Turf Three Strikes and You're Out - A Maiden Claiming Route Angle First Time Maiden Claiming The Speed and Earnings Method Best Jockey Two Race Declines A Beaten Favorite System Twice Beaten Favorites The Previous Odds Angle The Sleeper Horse The 4 1/2 Furlong Race System Tote Board Magic Tote Board Magic II Betting Favorites Using the Modified d'Alembert Betting Method

Download or read book The Mathematics of Horse Racing written by Vincent James and published by . This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mathematics of Horse Racing is about an analysis program that delves into the realm of horse racing to prove that this innovative quantitative approach, based on the statistical principles of correlation, has a far greater success rate in an industry that eludes most. Important to note is that at the back end of all information that adds value there lies a system of analysis.In today's internet age there is an explosion of data. The reality is that not much can be done with data that has not been processed. The difficulty lies in making sense of all this data by transforming it into information, which implies determining what is relevant and eliminating the irrelevant. Importantly, what exactly does specific data represent and how could we use it to understand and even determine specific outcomes? Or what does present or past data have on future events? The correlation program, i.e. the CET Analysis Program, proves its horse racing capability to forecast the best horses that had finished in the top of several horse race meetings - which has not been limited to South Africa but beyond. The Mathematics of Horse Racing presents substantive evidence in the form of primarily winning tickets that conclusively proves the accuracy of the CET program to analysis data beyond the present subject of horse racing. Emphasis is twofold - firstly, statistical science and its relationship to the CET methodology and secondly, its application that resulted in the documenting of actual horse race winning tickets."Data do not give up their secrets easily. They must be tortured to confess."Jeff Hopperwww.cetanalysis.com
