Travis Makes Money

Make Money from Horse Racing | Jeff Seder


Listen Later

Jeff Seder is a Harvard-trained innovator who revolutionized the horse racing world with analytics, biomechanics, and data-driven insights. Founder of EQB (Equine Biomechanics & Exercise Physiology), Jeff spent over $7 million of his own money and four decades developing scientific methods—helping buyers select young, unraced thoroughbreds that become world champions. His work has led to landmark wins, including scouting the first Triple Crown winner in 37 years, and proven you don’t need to be a billionaire to win big if you have the right expertise and technology.

On this episode we talk about:

  • The wild journey from Harvard Law to horse talent scouting

  • Scientific breakthroughs that changed how champions are picked—including heart scans, biomechanics, and slow-motion video

  • The economics and risk of investing in horse racing vs. traditional assets

  • How “Moneyball” thinking beats the old pedigree obsession

  • Changes in regulation, safety, and opportunity for newcomers and syndicate owners

    Top 3 Takeaways

    1. Success in horse racing is possible for non-billionaires—the right science, management, and data can beat million-dollar pedigrees.

    2. Investing in racehorses is risky and complex, but partnering with experts (and avoiding emotional bets) greatly increases your odds.

    3. Modern regulation and technology have made horse racing safer for horses and more open for smart new investors.

      Notable Quotes

      • "I spent millions and 30 years proving that science and data—not pedigree—pick champions."

      • "Most people in horse racing lose money, but our clients make money because we combine tech with traditional expertise."

      • "Don’t go it alone; management matters as much as picking the horse—one mistake and you’re done."
