Our Betting Approach

First of all: This site is a betting site, providing betting tips on a regular basis, even though not on a daily one. Our aim is simple: Finding winners. Our approach is simple too: Finding value to be a winner in the long term. How do we do that: We watch as much racing as possible. This enables us to find so called eye-catchers. This means: Horses which ran better than the bare result suggest.

This is a quite unique approach, even though there are others out there who do their selections based on visual performance as well. Let's be quite honest: I'm not really good in relentless form study, which is tiring and kind of boring after a while for me. I love to watch racing though, and think I have an eye and understanding of why a race is run- and did unfold in a certain way. The watching of races again and again, and certain parts of races in particular, is tiring as well but it's something I really love to put in the effort and it's always rewarding if you see something that not everyone has seen and therefore it gives you an edge. In the end watching racing and drawing conclusions on the evidence of visual impression is very much a subjective thing. Obviously you can't do this entirely without form study though. After finding an "eye-catcher" it's very much about getting to know the horse's form, preferences etc. to get a clearer picture about the run and future prospects.

After all it has to be the visual performance which  is convincing and interesting. It's the decisive and essential part in the betting approach of this site. In football they say "The truth lies on the pitch". This is true and it's pretty much the same in racing. Obviously, the last but also very important part of successful betting on horses is the finding of "value". It's the big buzzword in betting. And it's very subjective. What is value for me, doesn't has to be value for someone else. But that makes it interesting, doesn't it?

To summarize: This is a betting blog. Tips are based on visual performance and on value of the odds. These two things are very subjective and a matter of opinion. That says if you want to follow our tips then we're happy to provide you with quality selections. But bear in mind, success can not be guaranteed and loosing runs are part of the game. Also remember: Winning is about the long term. It's a marathon, not a sprint...
