Read the Q&A below to get to more about how to bet on the Breeders Cup.
Q: Who's going to win the Breeders' Cup races?
A: The Breeders' Cup is similar to any other set of races in that the handicapper should attempt to make a decision based on each horse's chances in relation to his price. This is the very essence of value, which along with speed, pace and track bias, form the four pillars of horse betting.
It may sound odd but trying to pick the winner of a race is a hopeless strategy. Rather than betting picks, you should try to pick your bets.
Q: How many of the 11 Breeders' Cup races should I bet?
A: Probably all of them. With full or near full fields, it's a rare opportunity to get excellent value on your wagers. In fact, the last time the Breeders' Cup was held at Churchill Downs, in 2000, Spain paid $113.80 (for a $2 wager) for her victory in the Distaff and Caressing returned $96.00 for winning the Juvenile Fillies.
Q: What's the best way to play the Ultra Pick Six?
A: With a lot of money. Let's face it, unless you invest a large sum of cash that allows you the luxury of many combinations, your chances of hitting the gimmick are about as likely as John Rocker celebrating Kwanza.
If you're a small horse betting investor, you have to be bold and innovative. That means going against the crowd. For example, instead of singling the day's most likely winner the only way you're going to beat the masses is to do something audacious such as leaving an odds-on horse off your ticket. Conversely, rather than spreading out to four or five horses in a tough, competitive race, the right move is to take a stand.
