5in/5out
if you watch the SEGA race results section of the wagering screen you will notice an interesting thing. Many of the horses will go through a series of 5in/5out. What that means is that a horse that may not always be a good finisher, may out of the blue manage to finish 5 races in a row with either a first or second place finish. In fact, if you look at the race results, any horse that has 4 finishes in a row that are fists and seconds, is highly likely to get the fifth one as a first or a second. Where this is to the players advantage is specifically when the odds for that horse are good, for example 7 or better. In that instance you should wheel that horse and bet all 5 of his quinellas heavy.
In addition, you will notice that the favorite horses run into computer generated 'losing streaks'. Those losing streaks again follow a similar pattern. When you see a top horse (one who has 2 or 3 to 1 odds) who has 4 losses in a row, you can safely exclude him from your wagering as he is highly likely not to finish in the quinella. This often creates great opportunities for payouts in the range of 20-60 credits.
Keep in mind this does not happen EVERY single time, but it does happen VERY often. Watch the game. As a regular observer and player I can often tell you the exact finishes of all 6 horse just from looking at their past 5 races and seeing where it is it makes sense for them to finish.
