Here are our top five insider secrets to winning at the Belmont Stakes. Belmont Stakes:
#1 The rule of the dropped line
If you're getting closer to post time. If you see that the odds for a particular horse are declining more quickly than an New York minute, it's time to pay attention. It could be a sign that those who are in the know are expecting to see something huge from the horse. When the word out in the back is that a horse's breeze broke the clock on the trainer track, professional handicappers are likely to place a lot of bets on the horse, and you might want to also.
#2 The speed-post secret of improvement
Find a horse who did not just show the speed early in his previous start, but held his position for the first two starts. If the horse is more close to the rail this morning (improving his post position), and if it has moved up in class and is having lower odds than his post time odds from the previous race, it might be a good idea to pay attention to that horse.
#3: only speed rule
Find the horse with the only speed in a race full with closers. You'll be good to go. If there are a few speed horses, you're better off, as they will usually tire out down the home stretch while your horse still is in good form and will likely betflik end ahead of the pack.
#4 The down and up pattern rule
If you find an animal that was strong at the beginning and then lost a bit of ground, but returned at the conclusion to improve or regain his position in its past performances, you may consider keeping an eye on this horse because they will often come back to be strong and could be worth betting on. There is a good chance that he had some issues during this race but did enough to persevere through. Make sure he didn't pull through due to fatigue of the competitors.
#5 Talking horse?
Your horse is telling you something. They don't have the ability to speak like Mr. Ed however their manner of speaking and body language communicates a message. A calm horse can see his ears turn twitchy when he hears a sound, while an angry horse will pin his ears on his head and a squirrely horse can be nervous and twitchy and ultra-sensitive to touch
It is best to stay away from a horse with an ear that is droopy. They're tired. Place your money on a different horse. The same goes for a horse with his tail in between his legs when he's saddled. It's a sign that he's afraid of something.
Finally, you'll need to see how a horse moves. Bet on horses that have large and athletic walks. This could bring you huge, healthy payouts.
