Hot and cold trainers are listed by win percentage. The timeframe is a ten-day period unless specified otherwise. Every day in the Todays Racing Digest (space permitting), we print this popular feature. Hot trainers are those that usually win at over 15% with several starters, while Cold Trainers are those that win at less than 7%.

As you follow this feature over a period of time, you'll start to see many of the same trainers are always popping up as Hot or Cold. By restricting your play to horses by trainers that win at 15% or better and eliminating any horses (especially low-odds horses) from barns that win at 5% or lower, you will start winning at a higher percentage and will probably see an increase in your bottom line.
