Your ability to assess the difference between some one who wants to add to your prosperity and someone who wants to separate you from it is probably the most vital skill you can learn.
Better to take notice of reputable, experienced professional punters and organisations such as:
Nick Mordin – (Betting For a living) legendary book about betting on horses
Terry Burke – (DIY punting) very inspiring book containing superb advice about betting on horses.

Handicaps versus non handicaps (A different approach)
Handicaps and non handicaps should be considered as very different. For that reason different rules apply when assessing these two separate entities. To clarify the point let’s take a look at the main differences and try to compare the two objectively…
Non handicap races – are contested by young unexposed horses which are likely to be improving with each race. The win percentages for favourites are generally high, especially in National Hunt races such as, novice hurdles and novice chases. The quality and breeding of the horses on the whole is very good. Assessing races can be easier because the form of each runner is by and large straight forward. The betting forecast is often headed by two or three horses taking up to 80% of the book. And over the years this has proven to be an accurate reflection of each horse chances, with strong favourites winning daily at short odds.
