Hong Kong horse racing is very attractive with her huge betting pool. Even with the protection of law, it is difficult to avoid people from behave illegally in order to obtain benefit.
There was a rarely action carried out by the police of HK, Macao and Mainland China in June this year. Their target was an active illegal betting syndicate in Pearl River delta. 29 arrested suspects include policeman, artist and businessman. Since the big boss behind was escaped, it is believed that the syndicate was greatly hurt.
After the disappear of this syndicate, latecomers from overseas start their business. It is just like magic that their betting is nearly 100% accurate. Several illegal-betting syndicates were lost by accepting their bets. Recently, HKJC is their target. Of course, HKJC and ICAC are working together to stop their un-friendly attitude.
Odds fallen quickly On Nov 04, the previous day odds of horse number 14 in Race 4 was 28. However, it fell quickly to 26. Within several seconds, it further decreased to 15. Once the race started, the finial odds was 11. This was an unbelievable heteromorphy case.
heteromorphy -- what a word!!! translator was using dictionary but i think it means unusual
Actually, this is not a rare case in this season. One horse from David Hayes in Race 5 on Oct 22 and one horse from T. W. Leung in Race 3 on Oct 28 shared the same case. They were turned from an outsider to a favor within a short period just before the race start.
On Oct 28, an outsider horse (Jockey !V Y. T. Cheng) came in. That is a new horse just arrived from Australia. It was her first race in HK. Her gate position was 12. Commenter regarded this horse to be lack of training before the race (Odds was 43). However, her odds changed from 43 to 19, then, reach 8.1 just before the start of race. It seems that there was some big ticket from professional syndicates. It is believed that at least several million is needed to change the odds from 19 to 8.1. The guy who did that should have very high confident to this horse. Even the trainer David Hayes could not predict this result.
Black market of horse racing Before the fall of big boss in horse racing black market, he used many ways to affect the race result. For example, he tried any possible means to make a horse losing when big bet was made in that horse to his syndicate. One usual way is to ask jockey to hit the sex organ of the horse.
The sure win formula of Richard In 1995, a horse racing syndicate was reported to win over 30 millions per season. The leader Richard (fake name) was came back from Canada. He knows the family background of most horses from England and Ireland. After a hard working to collect the data of horses, he further obtains the information from trainers, jockeys, doctors and so on. All those useful information was inputted into computer systems.
Since he has all the information, what he wants is to find out the horses to be !?sure lose!?. Then, he will invest his money heavily into rest horses.
God of Horse Racing win several billions with 100k only Robert More who was born in New Zealand started gambling when he was eight year olds. Especially, he is a specialist in horse racing.
He came to HK in 1989 with nothing. With the 100k borrowed from a friend, he claimed to win several billions in the coming 8 racing seasons. HKJC stopped him from making any bet because he reached the maximum amount of betting. He then sued HKJC for broken the laws of human right. Finally, he was allowed to bet again.
In 1997, he was committed suicide. Some one claimed that he was the representative of a syndicate. Due to poor result, he was forced to commit suicide.
British and Australian syndicates corrupt Jockeys. Several years ago, a British and Australian syndicate was believed to corrupt jockeys to affect the race result.
Those syndicates have all the information of horses. With analysis and observation, they can find out which horse is top fit. Then, they will bet it with great amount of money.
Sometime, they will bet 100k or 200k win in a horse and give it to the jockey. If the jockey wins, the collect would belong to that jockey. It is one way to ensure the corruption of the jockey.
South-East Asia syndicates. The leader of South-East Asia syndicates is an active person in Macao casinos.
Several African jockeys are friends of this syndicate. This syndicate would cooperate with the British-Australian syndicate in order to win the money.
Australian Syndicate makes predication in a science way A famous commenter Mr. Cheung said that cheating in horse racing is disappeared under the monitor of HKJC. However, he believes that there are professional syndicates in HK.
They send someone to do the trackwork. Do their best to know the status of horses. With professional statistic analysis, they can predict the chance of winning. Among those syndicates, Australian one is the most active. He believes that they do not break the law so far.
