The Basic Belmont Stakes Betting Terms
First, let's get a definition of the term used for horse
race betting, handicapping. Handicapping means
evaluating the various factors of a horse's history,
then balancing that information against the same
info on horses in the same race. Simply put, it is the
technical way of determining which horse will win
a given race. Factors to study include pedigree,
trainer, jockey, class, track, pace and speed.
Pedigree
A horse's ancestral line. If a horse's sire or dam were
winners, then chances are that horse could be a winner
also.
Trainer
The person responsible for a horse's development and
race preparation. Not to be confused with the owner,
whose claim to the horse is purely financial.
Jockey
The person who rides the horse during a race. If you
didn't know that already, you may want to avoid
handicapping and stick to the mint juleps.
Class
The level or quality of race at which a horse is
running. Most well-known races are graded, Grade I being
the highest, Grade III the lowest. For instance, if a
horse which normally runs in only graded races were
to step down in class and run in a non-graded race, that
horse would be a sure favorite. If a horse were
stepping up in class, that horse might, though not
always, be less of a favorite. Movements between class
is a great way to distinguish horses in a given race.
Track
The actual place where the race is held. Often times a
horse that races well on one track will struggle on
another.
Pace
How a horse likes to run a race. Some horses like to
take the lead early and try to hold it, others like
to reserve energy and come from behind. Pace and the
distance of a race go hand-in-hand.
Speed
How fast a horse usually runs. Speed horses generally
take to the lead early and establish pace.
Those with stamina hope to outduel speed runners by the
end of the race.
