There can be as many as seven or even eight race meetings taking place on Saturday. The racing is contested by better class animals than in the week because the prize money on offer is much bigger, ultimately this means the horses are much more likely to run true to form.

Micro system 2: Lay maiden horses stepping into handicaps for the first time

Bet on Proven performers
Identify course and distance winners. Assess if those horses are racing within class and what their recent form looks like. Look for trainer`s who have a good record in that type of race.
If there are several course and distance winners in the same race they are likely to take each other on. If this is the case consider spreading your stake across these horses in a Dutch bet.

Each way betting
Because Saturday racing is more competitive than in the week it’s definitely worth backing fancied runners each way, especially in handicap races. Besides you may fancy more than one runner in a race, if you back them each way there’s a good chance you’ll at least get your stake returned.
Use a betting bank
Anyone who takes their betting seriously should use a betting bank, however weekend punters are more likely bet whatever spare money is there in their wallet. This approach is flawed on so many levels and should be avoided at all costs.
Before you commence betting, set out exactly how much you can afford to lose and stick to it no matter what the outcome. Generally we advise you to keep stakes small and manageable.
Use the betting exchanges
If you do bet every weekend, and haven’t already done so, we strongly advise you to set up an online betting account with the world’s number one betting exchange “Betfair”
Unlike traditional online bookmakers Betfair gives you the flexibility to place back, lay and trade bets. If you back a horse to win and its odds shorten significantly then you have the option to trade a no lose position by laying the same horse at lower odds. Alternatively, if the favourite looks weak you can simply lay it.
