System #2
by Vincent Conti Horseracing System #2 or 'The Frontrunner Special discusses horses that use up their speed.
No matter how long the race, whether a sprint or a mile or
over a mile, some horses love to run up front and eventually get caught by most
of the field. This is somewhat common in horse racing. Horses are sometimes
tough to control and a good jockey knows how to handle them. You’ll always
notice a horse run 1 1 1 2 2 3 and finish in 3rd.
However, the front runners that apply here are the horses
that use up their speed in its prior 2 races only. This strategy does NOT apply
to horses that have a history of using up their speed, but does apply only to
those who use up their speed in their previous two races. I will show you the
difference.
This system has been proven to produce many long shot
winner’s…and with a keen eye and wagering discipline, you can locate these
horses in the daily racing form at any track and in any type of race. Here are
the rules to follow:
Look for the horse in a race that used up its speed in his
previous race or in both of its
previous starts.
The horse must have finished out of the money in its prior
race only. Fourth place or worse.
The horse must have been in one of the top three positions
during the first, second or third point of call. The current race distance is not a factor. For example, if a
horse uses up his speed in its prior race at six furlongs and the current race
is over a mile….it does not matter. Ignore it! Ignore the distance.
The concept here is very simple to follow but hard to
figure. A horse’s ability to run in the top three positions at two points of
call makes that horse competitive. Some horse’s do this 90% of there racing
career….these are the horses that we need to eliminate when analyzing a race.
I am only interested in a horse’s prior two races of front
running. In some instances, a horse may have won the race two back, then
followed that win by using up its speed and ending up 4th or worse.
Now that same horse is running again and it will go to the front again. This
may sound confusing. Take a look at this example:
Last two races of Sir Laff A lot: Points of call ( 1 1 2 5 )
5Apr 10op 6 fst:22 :45 :1:12 3yo 15000c 13k 71 8 1 1 2 5 Mckee l 124lb
3.50 etc.
Points of call = 8
1 1 2
5 = Post 8, had lead and weakened
to 5th place.
Points of call ( 2 3 5 5 )
17Mar 3op 6 fst:22 :46 :1:11 3yo 32000c 17k 72 3 2 3 5 5 Mckee l
121lb 5.50 etc.
Points of call = 3
2 3 5 5 =
Post 3, front running 2nd and 3rd and faded to 5th place
Here you will notice the horse Sir Laff Alot. In its
previous race, the horse led the race in the first two points of call. While
slowing to 2nd place and finally finishing in 5th place.
Prior to that race Sir Laff Alot had some early speed while
running in 2nd and then 3rd position before tiring and finishing in
5th place. Its prior two races were run with early speed and tiring out of the
money. Sir Laff Alot is a perfect candidate for the front runner special. The
following race, the horse went wire to wire that day paying $7.80 to win. The
exacta paid $51.00.
Another example of the front runner special:
This is a maiden race at Charles Town. The #6 horse Major
Sugar Rush only has two lifetime races. In its prior two races this horse had
early speed. In both starts, he wanted to go to the wire but slowed
considerably. As the rules apply here,
the horse used up and finished 4th or worse in its last start (both starts
actually) prompting me to make a wager in its current race. Major Sugar Rush
wins easily and pays a handsome $14.80. The exacta paid $219.00. A $2.00 exacta
#6 with ALL paid a nice dividend.
There are just three simple steps when applying the “Front
Runner Special.”
A simple $2.00 across the board wager has a nice return on a
front running long shot. I find most of the horses that apply to this strategy
usually go off at long odds. I also like the exacta wager with “All” being part
two of the exacta. For a small investment, you can receive nice returns
applying the Front Runner Special.
Wager type: WPS and Exacta
Race Type: Apply to Claiming races.
Win Percentage:
This system can be applied to any type of horse race. The “Front Runner
Special” has a win percentage of 62%, with the majority of the winners being of
long odds.
