Horse racing systems come in all shapes and sizes. You only have to enter the phrase "horse racing systems" into your web browser and it will come up with millions of matches. The problem is how you discover which offer a real chance of helping you make money from your betting and those which are only designed to make the promoter wealthy.

One rule of thumb that I tend to use is that the more they promise the less they are likely to give. We have all seen systems advertised that promise many thousands of pounds profit in a few days or weeks. These types of system are not for real punters, they are for the dreamers and those misguided people who still believe you can get something for nothing.

The first factor to look at is to look and see who is actually offering the system. Are they a well known "name" or somebody you have never heard of? In either case it is worth typing their name into your search engine and see if there are any comments, good or bad, about them on the web. One point to be careful is to make sure that those who are praising the person are not also trying to sell one of his systems on commission as an affiliate. There are some very good horse racing review sites on the Internet and it can be worth checking out any system you are thinking of buying with these.


A good system will have a checkable past results record which should go back for some time, and at least a year. Making money from betting is not a quick wealth solution; it is something for the long term. No matter how good a horse racing system is there will be losing periods and providing they do not last too long should be expected. It is not how a system does on a week to week or even a month to month basis but annually that is important. If you are sure that over a 12 month period you will show a profit then you have a good system. The big mistake many punters make is to abandon a system as soon as it shows a loss and that is not always the smartest move.

A good final check is to actually contact the system promoter. If they do not provide any method of contacting them, i.e. email or physical address then I would have nothing to do with the system anyway. The points to look for if you do contact them is do they reply promptly and answer the questions you have asked?

Having exercise what is called "due diligence" it is then up to you to make up your own mind if it is worth paying up the money for a system. None of the above will give you any guarantee that you will have bought the best system ever but it will help you making some expensive mistakes.
