Every losing bet is an opportunity to learn something which sounds pretty lame but it is true. I have had some awful beats in this game for large sums of money with everything from breakdowns of winners in the deep stretch of P6's to the jockey trips of doom and defeat we all have had. In some cases it's about collecting more information, sometimes it is about using different tools, or maybe watching more film or studying and learning from angles that beat you that day for the future. You will never win every day but you can learn enough about the game, form cycles, and pedigree to make some money if your patient and smart. Just one old man's opinion...
