Horses To Watch

Our exclusive free list of horses that can improve greatly in their next starts while likely being overlooked by the betting public.  Often times when horses run into trouble in a horse race they tend to improve their figures in their next starts.  Since most of the betting public is some version of traditional past performances to handicap the trouble the horse experienced in the race may not be reflected in the points of call or position throughout the race.  Learning to "read between the lines" and understanding the true reason a horse may not have performed well in a race can pay huge dividends at the betting window.  The Horses To Watch List can help guide you in learning to read between the lines and uncover those overlooked bombs that payout big!
