Disclaimer & Responsible Gaming
Effective date: November 2, 2026
This is not a gambling website
The Horse Nerd does not accept, place, broker, or hold wagers of any kind, and no money can be bet through this site. Everything we publish, including tip sheets, selections, workout reports, articles, and videos, is handicapping analysis and opinion intended for entertainment purposes only.
We do not encourage gambling beyond your means
If you choose to wager, do so only with money you can afford to lose, only if you are of legal wagering age, and only through a licensed racetrack or wagering provider in compliance with the laws where you live. Never bet to chase losses, pay bills, or make a living. Please gamble responsibly.
No guarantee of results
No one can guarantee the outcome of a horse race. Past results do not predict future results, and any track record we publish reflects past performance only.
Check the official sources
Odds, scratches, equipment changes, track conditions, and results change. Our content may contain errors or be out of date by post time. Always confirm with the racetrack's official program, tote board, and results.
No financial advice
Nothing on this site is financial, investment, or legal advice. Never wager money you cannot afford to lose.
Gamble responsibly
Wagering should be entertainment, not a way to make money or recover losses. Signs it may be becoming a problem:
- Betting more than you planned, or chasing losses
- Borrowing money or using bill money to bet
- Hiding your betting from family or friends
- Feeling restless or irritable when you try to cut back
Most racetracks and wagering apps also offer self-exclusion and deposit limits; ask the track's guest services or check your account settings.
