Things To Consider Before Bidding In The Paddock Room

By Paul Cox


Racing and gambling have been around for very long. All of those sporting events have always involved a horse, one way or another. Horse racing has its own economy and it is no wonder why. Keeping these animals in top shape is of highest priority for these owners considering how expensive a good horse can cost.

These animals are usually kept in a stall or a fenced area. The paddock room has a lot of attached meaning to it. Back in world war two this used to be the code name for war room in London where Winston Churchill met with his officials, at least twice the whole duration of WW2. In the case of this article, it is a place where horseplayers would put their wagers on the winning bid.

The art of handicapping a race is not as simple as throwing darts on a picture of horses and numbers. Although, that is one way placing an unintelligent bet. The fun part of these races is how people look at the patterns and factors that can get an entry to win. To people who wager in these sporting events, they have studied it enough to develop their own way of analyzing a bet.

The Daily Racing Form, or DRF, is a printed document released day and night that show the statistics and results of a race. This is used by many horseplayers as important reference in analyzing their wagers. Many things come into play when deciding which entries to bet on.

There are a variety of bet types for this sport. Horse racing is generally legal in the states but regulations may vary per state. One form of betting may not be allowed in one state while it is permitted in another. What type of betting you get into depends on your expertise, confidence and the money in your pocket. There are easy ones and extremely hard ones that need incredible luck and probably a divine intervention to win, just like the lottery.

In the world of equestrian race, the goal is to limit the effort of handicapping and then restricting yourself to bet between a lesser number of entries. This increases your chances of winning. Most of the high stakes players do not bother with maiden entries or horses that have only started the sport.

Having a winning horse is a matter of breeding and training. Many of the literature for this sport state that there are a set of factors to consider. There are the number of consecutive wins and placements of the entries. Even the surface of the platform is taken into account. These surfaces are either dirt, grass or synthetic.

Players consider so many things which also include who trains the horses and who rides them. Winning percentages come into play for both people too and not just the horse. Some may even have a tally board for all the factors that they might find necessary to find the right bet. If you have this chart of things that determine the horse that is most likely to win, based on carefully calculated factors, then pick the horse with the most check marks.

Gambling can be addictive. Strategy and playing with chance are more addicting than the actual winning. It is probably the allure in trying to control an uncontrollable predicament. This is all true to any type of betting.
