Even the most experienced handicappers will tell you that picking 8 out of 10 winners is simply unbelievable. Winning at an 80% clip is, quite frankly, unprecedented! Betting only one (1) horse per race and winning 8 out of 10 races is flat out remarkable. Did we mention that 1 of those 8 winning selections was actually a 50-1 long shot? Since no one can possibly be that lucky, how does one handicapper become so skilled?

Well, according to SCOTT ALBERG, there really is no trick to handicapping standardbred race horses. But it does involve being able to see things beyond the statistics in a program. It requires a razor sharp eye for watching horses score down and an uncanny sense for knowing when a horse is just not right.

Other intangibles include:

Do certain weather conditions make it a mistake to try and rate the mile?
When is a drop in class not necessarily a good thing?
Will a claimed horse always utilize speed and, if so, when is this dangerous?
Which particular trainers have an advantage on an off track?
How much emphasis do you place on a horse missing a week for sickness?

The answer to these questions can certainly be shared with you by Scott. However, professional handicapping involves so much more than just the answer to a few selected questions. Unless you watch the races week after week, particularly videotape replay and know exactly what to look for, all the handicapping knowledge in the world may not necessarily help you pick a winner. For that reason, 4NjPicks.com has acquired SCOTT ALBERG to offer you one thing and one thing only… Scott’s exclusive picks from the Meadowlands Racetrack.

Of course, Scott can offer you his handicapping selections at various racetracks throughout the nation, but that would be doing you (the betting patron) a disservice. You see, it takes hours upon hours to review videotape replay. While this is only one aspect of handicapping, Scott cannot possibly be fair to our patrons if he simply attempts to handicap too many racetracks at once. Hence, the reason Scott keeps his selections limited to the Meadowlands Racetrack, where both Scott’s National championships were won and where Scott has spent the past 30 years handicapping.

Some additional intangibles of handicapping harness racing include:

Are drivers ever instructed not to overtax a horse due to future considerations?
Which particular trainer changes generally yield positive results and which do not?
When is it important to see the draw sheet and what specifically should you look for?
When is a driver change to a higher percentage driver not necessarily advantageous?
What is the key indicator when considering a first time starter from another racetrack?

These are just a small percentage of questions that must be considered when handicapping harness races. However, that still won’t give you a true advantage if you don’t have the knack for spotting soreness, possible sickness or some other sort of lameness issues in a racehorse.

Many so-called “bridge jumpers” wager tens of thousands of dollars on show bets, all in an effort to acquire a quick 5% return on their money. Is this a good thing? Many people consider this a most risky investment. The answer, however, is not so fundamentally clear. Regardless, wouldn’t it be nice to have the backing of a proven NHHC champion to heighten your confidence?

Any skilled handicapper can handicap the races for you. However, if all they do is read a program and give you their picks, then they are simply not doing enough. To truly reach the caliber of a handicapping champion, in addition to knowing your stuff, you must constantly study videotape replays over and over again while watching each horse individually to gain a definite and clear advantage.
