Is punting on UK races easier than SA?

UK races give more choices, (at least 3 different meetings per day)
In SA there is only one race per day and if it rain, no meeting.
Please advise, I am still learning.

it depends on what you use for your form study/selection method. lot's of racing from the uk but they can clean you out quickly...wherever you punt you need a dependable rating system....

To be specific, are you asking about opportunities to bet ( getting on ) ?
When it comes to studying form and accounting for the variables, UK racing is far more complex.
I can easily name 10 different factors that would affect UK racing and the compilation of selections.
I raced in the UK for 10 years after been a student of form in Cape Town since 1978.
Try studying the form of three handicaps with a 28 strong field, the nite before, with the prevailing going as good. 12'clock the next day, the going has changed completely, but completely.
No rain was forecast.
Good luck and happy punting

Six minutes between declaring a tip and results?
I was still looking for where the race will take place.CnC, next time, make it at least 10 minutes and mention where it is next time please
We all love you and you must know that you have a responsibility to the poverty stricken SA punters. (lol)

Betting on races, anywhere, is quite difficult...too many variables can impact on result...going, pace, jockey, slow out of gates, bumped, boxed in, prep runs so not fully fit, inconsistent objections, etc, etc...that form study can be negated...
I'd take 5/10 in a sports bet than <5/1 in any horse race...and even place bets with bookies are becoming less value due to percentage applied to even fixed places...avoid the tote like the plague due to inconsistency, uncertainty and variability of dividends...
All the best...happy punting wherever you decide to put your money...
