Home » Indy 500 PredictionsTake a look at some 2007 Indy 500 predictions from expert handicapper Jimmy Boyd! Every single year Jimmy Boyd and his staff try to give the Locksmith Sports readers a better chance of winning by releasing some Indy 500 predictions. These are a few tips, tricks, and observations that they had when taking a first look at the odds when they were released. All of them who are busy handicapping the race want to make sure our readers have the best chance of winning, and that is why you will see a nice slate of articles covering betting, the latest odds, and help in making accurate picks regarding the race.
When making Indy 500 predictions you can either take a look at the outright race winners or matchups. If you are going to try to place a few bets on the outright winner of the race then you should note that the odds are very long for most drivers. The favorites are frequently 6 to 1 or so, which means that the odds makers think the driver has less than a 1 in 6 chance of winning the race. Most people would probably enjoy the race more if they took a harder look at making their bets in the matchup props. These are heads up competitions on who is going to finish higher in the race than a competitor. The odds are almost always about even money since the book makers select drivers that are near each other when setting the matchups to bet on. You will have a big chance to profit on these and it helps if there is a driver you really like to bet on, and a driver that you really hate. Make sure you do plenty of homework as to the Indy Racing League before making your Indy 500 predictions. Take a hard look at the standings and see who is racing well and who isn't. Even though this is the biggest race of the year and everyone will be watching this contest, there are plenty additional races that you can use to give you an indicator of how things are going to play out at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway during Memorial Day weekend.
