There are 4 most frequently asked questions which we receive on the Horse Racing Tips Australia website and we shall answer them all for you really quickly below.


1. How do I understand the results information on the website?

After the winner result you will see a number for example Winner (1) $5.30 the (1) represents the winner came from the first tip in the sequence. So (2) will represent tip 2, (3) tip 3 and (4) tip 4. This information is given to help people clearly see which horse in the tips sequence actually won and it is then followed by the exacta, trifecta, first 4 and quadrella results information if we have tipped it correctly within the selections given and the prices shown are from the QLD TAB.

Added on Saturday the 30th of June 2018:

We now tell you which races are best to bet as we have introduced Key Notes to the website which outline each races best possibility of winning at a simple glance.

So for example:

Key Notes:

(*) Denotes "Special" so the Top Selection should really win.
(P) Denotes "Predictable" so overall race has a Higher Probability of success within the given 4 selections.
(O) Denotes an "Open" Race with many possibilities so Uncertain Of Outcome within selections.

Ipswich Race Tips:

Race 1: (*) 5, 4, 1, 3 - Winner (1) $1.30 Exacta $2.10 Trifecta $5.10 First 4 $5.60
Race 2: (*) 4, 2, 8, 7 - Winner (1) $1.50
Race 3: (P) 9, 1, 4, 6 - Winner (2) $4.90 Exacta $61.10 Trifecta $199.90 First 4 $812.60


Just something interesting:

Consistency is the key to winning. If you like betting for the Win then you will like what you see on our website as the strike rate on average for our Top 2 Selections is 50% of all races run each day and if you like dutch betting you can download free staking software from Winning More right here at free dutch betting software which you can use in conjunction with our tips each day.

Here is what a normal person would do.

Bet 5% of your bank.

Back the top 2 selections

Set a goal say to win $50 for the day.

Reach goal and then pull out and come back the next day.

A Great Tip: A really sensible approach would be to go through the early bookmaker prices for the Top 2 Selections when our tips are first posted for you each day and then search out those races which represent value and bet from there. It is advisable to ignore those races which contain odds-on favourites the type of races which represent little or no value. You will find that generally the bookmaker prices you will see early will be the best prices available as generally the prices for our selections will shorten in odds over the course of the day. 

If you want to find out even more helpful techniques and strategies you can read our ratings help guide here.

You will also see the Exacta mentioned a lot on this site but it is for a reason as the win rate for boxed exacta's on the site averages between 30% and 50% of all races run each day. And if you can get the Exacta logic will tell you that if you have the field for 3rd you then have the Trifecta and if you have the field for 4th you then have the First 4. Dependent on field sizes and thanks to the flexi dividend if you tie the race up right you can get as much as 33% of the dividend for as little as $10 so if you would like to discover some more helpful punting strategies & advice simply read our ratings how-to guide.

Don't know which races to bet or what bet type to try? Have a read of our ratings how-to guide which will give you some good ideas you might like to try. Basically the real key is Money Management which means you only bet 5% of your bank on each race you want to wager on until you make your profit for the day and by limiting your risk you are actually giving yourself a greater chance to win and once you have reached your target goal for the day just pull out. Pretty simple stuff really but a lot of people just don't get it which is why the bookies are doing very well and always have done so.


2. You give 4 selections in each race how does that work?

4 selections are given for each race in there exact order of preference for those that like Exacta's, Trifecta's and First 4's and you can either box or banker them and all of the different methods of exactly how you can do this are easily explained here in our comprehensive Ratings How-To Guide

If you like betting for the Win only then the best strategy is to simply back the Top Selection given or even look wider at the Top 2 Selections if you are looking to gain some extra value. The win percentages for both the Top Selection and Top 2 Selections are provided in our Ratings How-To Guide & also on all our websites Results Pages so you might like to check there for our exact daily statistics.

And if you like betting for the win Winning More has also provided us with some free dutch betting software here which may be of real use to you.

Looking for an easy high percentage way to back our selections? Try backing our Top Selection just for the place and if you are looking for more value try taking the Top Selections just for the place in a multi. From 21 December 2015 until 11 June 2017 there were 24,396 Top Selections. Of these 24,181 actually ran, that is were not late scratching's. Of the 24,181 that ran, 6969 or 28.8% ran 1st. A further 4,540 or 18.8% ran 2nd. And a further 3,298 or 13.6% ran 3rd. So all up, the Top Selection ran 1st, 2nd or 3rd, 14,807 times or 61.2%.


3. How do you give yourself the best chance of winning?

(a) Planning is using Money Management to manage your risk and you can read about this in our Ratings How-To Guide
