I have a solution to this problem that is extremely effective and extremely unpopular: don't look. Make your bets without reference to the odds or morning line, then go on to work the next race. Don't watch the odds move, don't watch the race, don't check the results or payoffs until you are done for the day. Spend your time handicapping and then entering the outcome into a good record keeping program when the day is done. So long as your bankroll is larger at the end of the day, no single race, or any group of races matters. Put your time and mental effort where it actually pays off, not watching dumb animals run around or listening to the opinions of other dumb animals betting on them.
I told you that you wouldn't like it, but it is how most professionals play.

Anything can be solved through prayer, talking, or violence.
If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.
