What is The Valuline?

It is a short list of the most likely winners.

These "selections" are the best in the industry, as measured by the:

The Valuline (TVL) is generated by a complex computer program, which scientifically evaluates all the past performances of each horse in every race. In addition to reviewing the entire history of each horse, the computer also weighs the success of jockeys and trainers, determining each horse's true chance of winning, and converting its win probability into a betting line (TVL).    TVL = [(1/WP) - 1]

Founded by two university professors of economics and statistics, you can read about their background on "About Us" at www.thevaluline.com.

Making and Keeping Profits at the Races

Among the legitimate contenders, the best horse is not necessarily the best bet. In fact, often the best horse is over-bet, and we must look to the second-, third-, or fourth-best horse to win at a price.

The TVL tells you what odds to accept on each of the win contenders. The objective is to make "value bets".

NOTE: All Value Bets require actual track odds to be higher than TVL odds.

BETTING STRATEGIES

1. Basic Strategy

   Bet to win on overlays to the TVL.

   The horses are ranked by their chance of winning (WP). However, do not bet by rank. The betting strategy is to bet the horse whose track odds is most above TVL odds (largest overlay):

2. The Single Value Bet

   At Gulfstream Park on Monday January 19, 2015, there were two very strong ovelays in the ninth race: Mr. Magician and Smart As A Fawkes: both were 15-1. The other two win contenders were underlays. Smart As A Fawkes nosed out Mr. Magician to win, with D'Tumbling Dice finishing third and Seventhfleethumor finishing fourth.

   The bets were: Mr. Magician and Smart As A Fawkes to win (paying $33.20), and boxed in the exacta (paying $398). Plus, the four win contenders in the race were boxed in the $1 Trifecta (for $24) paying $1,215.30, and in the $1 Superfecta (for $24) paying $2,583.40.

    5 SEVENTHFLEETHUMOR              7/2    6/5
    7 SMART AS A FAWKES              9/2   15/1
    4 D'TUMBLING DICE                6/1    7/2
   

3. Multiple Value Bets

   When there is more than one overlay, we pass the race unless there is a standout overlay.

   Horse "C" is the value bet in the following example:

       Horse    TVL Odds    Track Odds
         A        8/5          9/5
         B        5/2          3/1
         C        5/1         15/1  STANDOUT OVERLAY

4. Exotic Value Bets
   1. A value bet can be "saved" behind the favorite in an exacta.

   2. A value bet can be used in a daily double.

   3. A value bet can be used with our other win contenders in an exacta, quinella, or trifecta.

   4. A value bet can lead to a good payoff in a pick 3.

   5. Pick 6: This longshot bet may be worth the investment, if there are two or three keys (Thumbs Up or Power Plays) and value bets in the sequence.

   NOTE: A "key" horse is the economical way to bet the exotics: one key triggers recommended daily double and exacta bets; two keys trigger pick 3 and pick 4 bets; three keys trigger pick 5 and pick 6 bets.

   The Valuline's
   PACE AND SPEED REPORT

   Aqueduct - Thursday - March 12, 2015

   Definition:	Pace:	Early runner likely to be near the lead at the first call.
   Definition:	Speed:	Late runner with competitive final time.

   Pace and Speed are "snapshots" of a horse race, the Pace snapshot taken during the first half of the race, and the Speed snapshot taken in the stretch run. The picture which best predicts the outcome depends on today's track bias, if any.

   As the contest unfolds, the "pace" horse has the advantage, and the horses near the lead have the best chance of winning the race. But a competitive pace duel, or a tiring track, can "set it up" for the horse whose running is done late, the "speed" of the race.

   Through a computer simulation of all of The Valuline's handicapping factors, the most likely runner at the first call is provided (Pace Report), and also the most likely runner in the stretch (Speed Report).

   If the front-runners are winning, favor the pace horses. If the closers are winning, favor the speed horses. A horse with both pace and speed is always a threat.
