Horse Racing Books
Betting on horse racing can be both an exhilarating and confusing pastime. When you first go to a track or wager and watch online its like a whole new language is being spoken.
Read a few books and you will start to feel the ground hardening under your new racing legs. There are many books and theory's about successful wagering on horse racing. Below is a list of10 books I have found very helpful.
My advice is to start with the first two and then read the rest in any order you like. Oh and I have been wagering for 5 years and I don't purport to know a whole lot but the writers of these book sure do.
One note, the last book in the list is Seabiscuit. I added it to the list because it gives the reader a great overview of the horses, trainers and jockeys that populate the world of horse racing. Enjoy

- Great post. Horse handicapping is an art unto itself, but once you have found handicapping systems that work for you, there are many software products available that can assist you in finding your horses. One which is currently in use by many handicappers including Rick Needham is: RaceAnalyser - Thoroughbred Handicapping Software

- Well a great Lens and a five star from me, but I really do not think betting is confusing. It can be uncertain sometmes but not confusing, specially not when you are guided by free horse racing tips and their extra ordinary Support Desk who are willing to answer just any question on Racing. I strongly believe you should try them.

- A great Lens, I will give you a 5 starts. Horse Racing is realy cool but sometimes it can be very fatal if you dont know what you are doing. Hence for starters I would really recomend an AutBot or a Horse Racing Software
which will genarete profits everyday while you can learn all the trics involved in horse Racing yourself. The Autobot link I gave is made by me David and I am a Programmer with Betfair.
