So let me get this right. You want to make money from horse racing and you are asking a bunch a strangers this question.

If you could do this to make money you wouldn't have to ask this question. You would already know.

You've got to be kidding--your bankroll is WAY too small to try this.

Back in 2000, between jobs, I played the entire GP meet "for a living". At one point I was up over $10,000. By the end of the meet I was barely above even.

You are asking to get your teeth kicked in, metaphorically.

You can't suddenly decide to be a professional classical pianist out of the blue because you happened to lose your job yesterday. It's the same type of thing. It's a skill and a discipline.

Playing horses to feed your family adds another level of pressure to the handicapping equation. I would expect that would impact style of play and could turn a winning player into a losing player.

What's more, even the winningest winning players have what, a 10% ROI. So you are way under-capitalized.

I agree wholeheartedly and scanned this entire thread purposely to determine if anyone else had made this realization.
