in my humble opinion the key is to focus your attention and betting dollar on no more then 2 meets. with time, patience and some smart money management skills you should find yourself having a good time. betting strategy is CRUCIAL. exotic bets, etc etc. For me, I roll with betting to win and place, pick 3's and the occasional pick 4.

I play for the action. I have accepted that. I win this week next week I lose
a total wash then I lose , lose, lose... time to take a break I only get down on myself when I save money and it ends up costing me thousands. Seems like the only time I make money is when I go through all the races. Bet the 10 or 20 I like and go home.

Here's my trick
One bet a week study all form & go to trials ,decide which is your best bet for the week,dont let how much it is the paying influence you, place $100 on the nose if it wins split half into a tin spend other half taking family out to dinner. If loses go back to work & repeat each week for 3 months, Open tin at end & take yourself & family on a holiday it's a win win situation I did it & had $8,000 in the tin so was great for a overseas holiday, placed $100 on a horse as i was going to the airport it came in paying $16 & had $1,600 when i came back which was good cause i was broke

I'd second the notion that you limit your focus to one track. get familiar with the jocks, trainers, horses. I find it give me an etherial feel especially when playing trainer/ J/T angles.
I also find that going to the paddock and looking at the horses will help you find a diamond in the rough or an underlay that may not seem to have his heart in it. Not every race by anymeans, but a couple-three times a day on average you can pick up some hints by watching the body language of the trainers giving instructions, and most importantly the horses themselves. The last time I was at TBD I saw a horse that looked like he was ready to beat the world. 27-1 on the tote board seemed to disagree. a 10.00 win ticket proved the horse, not the board, was right.. Conversely on the same card, I witnessed a 6-5 favorite with a peculiar foot flight. Could have been the shoes, don't know, but I knew there was something amiss. Left him out of my exacta, with what turned out to be good reason - he came in third...
