Using The Pacing System In Harness Racing
By: Richard Bleuze
Many horse bettors enjoy harness racing as well as thoroughbred racing. Harness racing can be just as fun and exciting as thoroughbred horse racing. In fact, those horse bettors that do place bets on harness racing believe that following harness horse racing can actually be a good introduction to thoroughbreds since once you become accustomed to harness racing you will soon develop a good understanding of pace, which will benefit you quite well when you begin following harness horse racing.
However, when placing a bet in harness racing, I really suggest that you learn to handicap the harness race. Therefore, I suggest that you learn the secret and techique that successful harness race handicappers must learn in addition to good money management skills (this is needed in all gambling games, etc.). That is, you can not play or bet every race but MUST handicap every harness race.
You MUST understand that in harness racing you must view every harness race in quarters. You do this since you need to time each quarter of the race. By doing this, you will be able to break down the harness race into quarters and be able to gain a better understanding of the ability of each horse.
Knowing the pace of the horse during each quarter will give you a much better ability to determine how the horse will perform in subsequent races. This is called the pacing system in harness racing.
Knowing the pace of the horse will also come in quite handy when you begin to view thoroughbred racing. A common misconception that horses have a tendency to run faster once they reach the last part of the race is false in most cases. In fact, it is usual for most horses to have a faster speed in the beginning of the race. Thus, you would know this little fact by learning the pacing system in harness racing. Therefore, learning to use the pacing system to handicap harness racing helps you to do precisely that.
The best way to handicap a horse in harness racing in my opinion, is to time how the horse does in each quarter. Once you are able to know the pacing information of a horse, you will should then be able to estimate the rate which the horse will run during subsequent quarters. Once you know the pacing system and use the pacing system, you will find that in most cases it will not be unsual for a horse that fares well to actually place in the top three.
