There are plenty of people in India and abroad who is addicted to make easy money. Many ways to make easy money. Lotteries, casinos, cricket betting, horse racing any gambling for that matter.
In indian horse racing there are punters who always try to earn money. As there are punters, there are bookies. Unless punters are there bookies cannot do their business. As long as there is racing bookies will survive. No racing no bookies no punters no business, no money rotation, no income generation to the government. This is an interlinked phenomenon.
Now coming to the point if a race card be framed by a particular club with 6, 7 ,8 or more races depending on the number of horses contesting. Stake money depends on the quality of horses contesting, sponsorers come forward and explore their business through canvasing their products.
In a particular race, card will be framed with one or two superior horses and and fix the odds by bookies with an understanding with the owners/trainers of the horses. The odds usually decided at one night prior to the race day. If a horse is made on money favourite depending on the performance of horse. If a race to be run on merits the fav surely wins the race. Punters will make money. If bookies wants to gamble and earn money that particular horse will not run to its true merit. It is a well known fact. If bookies give money to punters in two races they take back their money from the remaining races. If the card is framed with quality horses in all the races and run to its merit punter earn money and enjoy on that day. There the gaming strategy starts. Next day whole card be framed with medium class horses more or less equally qualified. Punter cannot judge which horse wins the race. As usual punters bet undoubtedly that particular horse certainly wins, but that race will not run to true potential, there by bookies make money on second day. In a week if punters gain profis for two days Bookies take back their money in remaining days and there by balance. However club makes income on every race day they conduct racing. This the revenue to the club as well as to government through tax. If it doesn't in the way described above neither club survives nor Bookies. On the whole in the end of the month punter will have an empty pocket or his wallet
