About Exotic Betting At The Racetrack
"Exotic Betting at the Racetrack by William T Ziemba is not only highly informative but is also hugely accessible to anyone with an interest in racetrack betting systems and strategies. Its use of wonderful examples and engaging commentary and anecdotes is a sheer delight. I am adding it with great pleasure to the very top table of my personal library." Professor Leighton Vaughan Williams Nottingham Business School Nottingham Trent University, UK "In his seminal book, Beat the Racetrack (1984), Dr William Ziemba changed the course of racetrack betting. Subsequent works delved into additional ways to capitalize on market inefficiencies at the racetrack. His current work, Exotic Betting at the Racetrack (2019), continues in the same vein and is chock-full of examples and interesting anecdotes. This is a must addition to any serious horseplayer's library." David McKenzie Exotic Betting at the Racetrack is unique as it covers the efficient-inefficient strategy to price and find profitable racetrack bets, along with handicapping that provides actual bets made by the author on essentially all of the major wagers offered at US racetracks. The book starts with efficiency, accuracy of the win odds, arbitrage, and optimal betting strategies. Examples and actual bets are shown for various wagers including win, place and show, exacta, quinella, double, trifecta, superfecta, Pick 3, 4 and 6 and rainbow pick 5 and 6. There are discussions of major races including the Breeders' Cup, Pegasus, Dubai World Cup and the US Triple Crown from 2012–2018. Dosage analysis is also described and used. An additional feature concerns great horses such as the great mares Rachel Alexandra, Zenyatta, Goldikova, Treve, Beholder and Song Bird. There is a discussion of horse ownership and a tour through arguably the world's top trainer Frederico Tesio and his stables and horses in Italy.
