Introduction I must thank you for buying my book and appreciate any comments on the system. I have inserted my email address at the end of the book. Plus feel free to email me if you have any questions or need any help. This horse racing system took me approximately 12 months to computer model and test primarily around UK handicap horse races.

In the book I have covered a horse race in extensive detail so that you understand the system and how to apply the horse racing system to each race quickly and thus finding winners easily.

I will make this bold statement straight away, "This book finds big priced winners in UK handicap horse races" easily and consistently!I need to make a very important statement here backing double figure priced horses can return some huge profits but you must remember they all do not win, more will lose races which is to be expected. There is a reason why the horse is such a big price it is mainly due to the fact the horse has not won for a long time. Another reason is that a horse could be out of its depth in other words running in a higher class of race.Most punters want winners every day at any odds this makes them feel good. They think they are making a profit, how wrong they are and the...
