Welcome to Odds-On.net

"This website probably differs from other online racing sites you may have visited. Rather than giving betting advice based on race form or stable information, it uses a software program to highlight value betting opportunities. As such, the site is based more on science than it is on tipping or handicapping. All content is FREE to use - I hope you enjoy using it.......Nick Hilton"

 

Can you make horse racing pay ?

Visit any UK high street and you will see at least one bookmaker shop. Bookies have to pay wages to their employees, dividends to shareholders, betting tax to the government. Bookmakers would not exist unless there were significant amounts of money being lost by punters.

The mathematics in the way that starting price and fixed odds betting are calculated is against the punter. Bookmaker’s price up a sports book so that the net outcome is always in the their favor. As a result, the majority of punters will lose long term.

Punter vs Punter !

It's not so much a war between punter and bookmaker, but a war between the casual and astute punter, with the bookmaker acting as broker or middleman. The question is, how do you change your betting habits and share in the bookmaker's profit ?

Make no mistake, making a living from backing horses is no easy task ! How many people can you name that make a living from gambling ? Not many, right ? Maybe - Phil Bull, Alex Bird and a handful of current professionals such as Harry Findlay. It requires discipline, dedication and a signification amount of hard work. Success is not just about backing winner’s, it’s about backing horses at the right odds. If you can beat the book, if you can consistently bet at odds higher than they should be, then the science say's you will win long term.

Bookmaker Value Odds

Bookmaker's pay big salaries to highly qualified odds compilers, with the necessary skills, software and knowledge to create very accurate betting forecasts. These tools are not available to the casual punter.

Some professional punter's try to find an edge by creating their own odds markets to highlight discrepancies in the bookmaker tissue odds. Odds-On follows a similar strategy, using our own horse racing tipping software. This model calculates the true odds for each horse in a particular race and compares against the advertised odds in the racing post newspaper. Horses that represent good or poor value is highlighted with either a (+) or (-).

Trading Odds

Betting exchanges have made it possible for punters to trade odds in a number of sports markets. Buying or selling odds makes it possible to make a profit no matter what the result. Odds-On provides a horse racing hedge calculator [sometimes referred to an arbitrage calculator] for this purpose. The arb calculator can be used independently or with the horse racing software program.

It's your choice !

There is no "get rich quick" in racing, the majority of tipsters and horse racing systems have a "boom and bust" approach. Odds-On is more methodical, preferring short gains over long periods. It does not profess to make you a millionaire overnight, but should, if the science is right, make a small profit on turnover in the long term.

I give no guarantee, or encourage you to bet, the risks associated with your decision are yours alone. That said, I will be following the selections with my own 'hard earned' so have a vested interest in the outcome.

Best of luck, whatever you decide.
