Customer Reviews

David Duncan makes good sense in this book.
If you are looking for a certain way to make money from horse racing then this book is not for you. David Duncan clearly states that there is no such thing as a 'certainty', and rightly so. His twelve golden rules of betting are exactly what they say; golden.

Whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced person in the world of betting, there is something you can take and learn from in this book. David talks about horse selection, racing systems and staking plans amongst many other things. He backs up his thoughts and ideas with good reasonsing and evidence which many other writers fail to do.

By using past experiences, statistics and mathematics, David Duncan has written a concise book which is easy and simple to understand. I believe that the hidden message in the book is that horse racing is all about opinions, and Mr. Duncan's is well worth listening to.

There may not be any certain way of making money on racing, but as this book shows, there are certain things we can do to help improve our chances.

Great Book
Great introduction to the 'art'. Covers all the areas you need to improve your betting success rate, easy to understand, easy to read and some good advice on betting methodology. Great value for the price - especially as a initial purchase to start a more comprehensive racing collection.

Bookmakers treat Horse Racing as a business, so should you!
This is the last line in the last chapter of this must-have book for all horse racing punters who are committed to making a profit from the Sport of Kings.
When it comes to horse racing, I regard myself a novice punter, with only 2 seasons of National Hunt behind me. I have plenty of gambling experience for many years in other areas, but for me now, horse racing over the jumps is my true calling!
What a fantastic surprise I got when I opened the covers of this book. It took me a little while to get into the relatively simple mathematical format of the text. But I was soon studying meticulously some of the more relevant chapters to me personally. For example, the treatise on Group Betting is seriously enlightening! Every horse racing punter needs to read this book!
I will never let this book out of my sight. It is brilliant, and it is essential.
I am going to order copies of this book for my closest punter buddies, as the best possible recommendation for this excellent body of work.
Thank you David Duncan, you have transformed my relationship to punting on horses!
