What are the factors that help you win a harness race? Whether the race is on a half-mile track or a longer track, horses almost always run a mile, but post position can play a big role in how well the horse starts and walks or trots.
Therefore, knowing the advantage or disadvantage of each post position on the track you are playing is critical. While a horse with early speed often has a huge advantage from an inside post on a half-mile track, that advantage may be non-existent on a longer track.
While looking at the driver, the class and the speed of the horse, always keep in mind where you will start from and keep in mind how the race will unfold, the pace scenario. On the other hand, it is possible to over handicap in the race. Just because a horse is a tough closer, doesn’t mean he will sit back and wait until the end of the race before making a move. Smart and talented drivers will assess the race and may decide that the best strategy is to get ahead. The driver can then shoot a horse that usually approaches the front and try to grab a rail seat towards the front of the herd.
Remember, while standard breed harness horses often have a favorite racing style, many are versatile enough to show speed early or late. In the hands of a good driver, such a horse can often show two rubs (bursts of speed). So don’t try to undermine the race and think that the pace scenario you see unfolding is a certainty. More important is the handicap speed and class figures of the horse and pointing out those who have shown a good brush in one of his last races. That, of course, brings us to the question of speed.
Unless you have watched the last few races of a horse, you may not fully understand the journey the horse went on and therefore may not know about problems encountered or the fact that it was ridden on a journey. pocket and got an unusually smooth ride. That’s why I recommend using an average speed that matches the position of the post.
I also compare the speed with the class of the race. If a horse managed to have good pace in the top class of any horse in the race, he should be an obvious favourite, unless he has a bad post or a driver with such a low winning average that he knows he’ll find a way. . lose.
Position of the position, driver, speed and class, these are the main factors and must be well understood. If you want to make a profit betting on harness racing, you’ll also need to look for value in the pools. While winning is my personal favorite, it is possible to find good bets in the groups of shows and venues.
A good horse that is hampered by a bad post can be overlooked by the crowd. While their chances of winning may be slim, these horses often manage to make money and pay well in second or third place.
