Thank you for taking the time to visit our website, which offers the chance to find out more about our aims and guiding principles.

The Racing Horse is NOT a tipping website. However, it is a website dedicated to horse racing information, practical and pertinent advice, where our core aim is to support readers find winners and profit. It will remind, aid and improve the selection process by using a variety of information sources.

The Racing Horse will never insult intelligence through hyperbole, it will be honest and without embellishment, and an advantageous location. Hopefully this source of valuable and straightforward information will evolve, whilst continuing to recognise mathematics as the governing force of successful betting.

The Pacafi Strategy is the cornerstone of The Racing Horse. It is mechanically filtered, math-based and carries the building blocks of the professional gambler. It removes randomness and negative influences making the bet less vulnerable. It has a high strike rate and there are no long losing runs. Finally, the information carried within the bet is totally relevant to the day of the race. The strategy makes incremental profits to level stakes and supported by a common-sense rationale.

The Racing Horse embraces the cherished principles of Monty Roberts. It has captured our perspective on horses, whether as racing animals or companions. Our time spent with him has been fortunate, enriching our lives. We are grateful for his wisdom, vision, and dedication. When asked for guidance, he shared, "We are more effective when we use calm and patient methods, whether it be with horses or people."
