At the Start
Greetings to all forum members.
I've long been fascinated by the subject of British horse racing, but as a non-native English speaker, for a long time I found it difficult to access useful information and learning resources.
Last year, though, YouTube suggested the Artimus Paint channel to me, with its series of horse racing videos. I then bought his book, "Directional Trading on Horse Racing", which really inspired me to study the world of horse racing in depth. Modern technology has also made it much easier to get high-quality translations of material.
For the past two months, I've been trying to select two to five races each day and trade them pre-off. The results have been positive so far (my test bank has grown by 30% in that period), but sometimes I come across markets where the price movement seems completely illogical—even after accounting for the possibility of insider information.
That’s why I plan to start a thread on this forum where I will analyse races whose market behaviour doesn’t make sense to me and ask for advice from more experienced forum members. Perhaps I’m missing some important factors.
I try to follow the 10,000-hour rule and I share Sir Winston Churchill’s opinion: “Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.”
