Horse racing and statistics

I did some stats and probability at uni and always had an interest in gambling (but only if I consistently win)
Anyone got into horseracing and tried to use stats for prediction?
I have met people in the industry and they have told me it's all fixed.
So I'm trying to predict the fixing pattern.
Anyone got any inside tips?
Stories?
Trainers keep getting busted giving cocaine to horses and using tasers so there is organised crime going on.
