✓ Positives:(1) Dropping in class today ($12,500 → $8,000). (2) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (39%). (3) Fourth race back from a 104-day layoff — often the peak fitness race. (4) Strong speed 2 back (76), modest dip last out (64) — form reversal angle, ready to bounce back to top form. (5) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (40%). (6) Has won at today's distance (1320 yds) within the last 10 starts — proven ability at this trip. (7) Career-best figure (82) buried in races 4–10 back — 10 pts above race median and 6 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (8) Averages 71.8 speed pts in today's distance/surface configuration vs 62.5 in other configs (6 qualifying starts) — returning to ideal setup. (9) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 7/10 — angles: Won at This Distance, Hot Jockey, Class Drop, Return to Proven Setup, Hidden Figure, Form Reversal, Classic Fourth Race Pattern.

⚠ Concerns:(1) 0 wins from 7 career starts on off tracks. (2) Poor record at this track (0 wins from 9 starts). (3) Trip note from last race: Stdy st;4-2p;no impact. (4) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 9.2 pts: [64, 76, 71, 82, 59]) — unpredictable performer.

✓ Positives:(1) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (28%). (2) Big last-race effort (79) — 16 pts above recent average. (3) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (39%). (4) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 90 vs field 86). (5) Has won at today's distance (1320 yds) within the last 10 starts — proven ability at this trip. (6) Outstanding wet-track record: 1W from 4 starts (25%) — thrives when the going is off. (7) Has won at OP on dirt in the last 10 starts — proven at today's exact track/surface combo. (8) Trainer 'MARTIN WILLIAM N' has 2 horses in today's card all showing last-race improvement — barn appears sharp right now. (9) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'F', 'L']) yet still finished 1st — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (10) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 8/10 — angles: Big Last Effort, Won at This Distance, Stable on Fire, Hot Jockey, Early Speed Edge, Off-Track Ace, Won Here Before, Troubled Trip Comeback.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (2) Trip note from last race: 3-4p;led5/16;held firm. (3) Last race was career-best speed (79) — bounce risk after peak effort. (4) Dropping in class in consecutive starts ($32,000 → $16,000 → $12,500). (5) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 8.9 pts: [79, 58, 67, 64, 77]) — unpredictable performer.

✓ Positives:(1) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (36%). (2) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (25.00%). (3) Outstanding wet-track record: 1W from 4 starts (25%) — thrives when the going is off. (4) Last race: surged from 6th at 1st call to 3rd/2nd at stretch but faded to 5th — hidden energy often signals next-race win. (5) Career-best figure (79) buried in races 4–10 back — 11 pts above race median and 8 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (6) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 5/10 — angles: Off-Track Ace, Hidden Figure, Middle Move Upside.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Repeatedly beaten at this class level (5 of last 5 starts). (2) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (3) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 8 recent starts). (4) Trip note from last race: Bid4p1/4;flatten5p str. (5) Post 7 in a 9-horse dirt sprint — wide draw forces extra ground and a difficult first-turn path.

Predicted Finish Order: Factors in contested pace burn, each horse’s effort curve (peaked-early vs. peaked-late), and wide trip cost from outside posts. Updated live when Track Bias changes.
Pace Scenario: Lone Speed: single E horse likely rates and holds. Contested: two E horses burn each other — closers benefit. Hot Pace: speed meltdown, deep closers thrive. Soft: no early speed, moderate fractions throughout.
Track Bias: Slider below canvas. −2 = strong closer/wet bias; +2 = strong speed/rail bias. Recomputes the predicted finish order.
Boxed Indicator: Dashed orange ring = horse is surrounded (rival ahead, rival behind, wall outside). In a real race this horse must find a clear path to run.
Running Styles: E/EE = early speed (rushes to rail). P = presser (stalks the pace). S = stalker. SS = slow starter / closer.

Dashed Reference Line: AI Opponent = AI analysis class-level par for the race

✓ Positives:(1) Speed average (76) well above field median (69). (2) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (34%). (3) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (33%). (4) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 88 vs field 84). (5) Fourth race back from a 47-day layoff — often the peak fitness race. (6) Career-best figure (84) buried in races 4–10 back — 15 pts above race median and 6 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (7) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['L', 'S', 'T', 'V']) yet still finished 4th — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (8) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 7/10 — angles: Class Superiority, Hidden Figure, Troubled Trip Comeback, Classic Fourth Race Pattern.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (2) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 8 recent starts). (3) Trip note from last race: Ins-3p; evenly stretch. (4) Consistently breaks behind post position (3 of last 5 starts). (5) Post 9 in a 9-horse dirt sprint — wide draw forces extra ground and a difficult first-turn path.

✓ Positives:(1) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (36%). (2) Career-best speed figure (52) recorded in last 1-2 starts — peaking form. (3) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (6.06%). (4) Strong speed 2 back (52), modest dip last out (42) — form reversal angle, ready to bounce back to top form. (5) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 90 vs field 82). (6) Carries 8 lbs less than field median (110 lbs vs median 118 lbs). (7) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 8/10 — angles: Career-Best Recent Figure, Early Speed Edge, Hot Trainer, Form Reversal, Weight Advantage.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (2) Limited experience at today's distance (2 starts). (3) Unproven on dirt surface (2 starts). (4) Trip note from last race: Chase 3w;bump3/8;faded. (5) Outside post (9) in a large field of 14 horses. (6) No workout in last 30 days despite 26 days since last race. (7) Post 9 in a 14-horse dirt sprint — wide draw forces extra ground and a difficult first-turn path.

(8) Career-best figure (68) buried in races 4–10 back — 16 pts above race median and 5 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (9) Averages 58.6 speed pts in today's distance/surface configuration vs 53.0 in other configs (8 qualifying starts) — returning to ideal setup. (10) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 10/10 — angles: Class Superiority, Big Last Effort, Early Speed Edge, Pace Collapse Victim, Return to Proven Setup, Hidden Figure, Classic Fourth Race Pattern.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Rising in class today ($12,500 → $20,000). (2) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (3) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 8 recent starts). (4) Poor record at this track (0 wins from 9 starts). (5) Trip note from last race: 3-2p;btwn turn;fade1/8. (6) Outside post (13) in a large field of 14 horses. (7) Rising in class ($12,500 → $20,000) after finishing 5 last out — double negative. (8) Post 13 in a 14-horse dirt sprint — wide draw forces extra ground and a difficult first-turn path. (9) 0 wins from 10 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

✓ Positives:(1) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (26%). (2) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (16.67%). (3) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 82 vs field 79). (4) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (5) Strong speed 2 back (76), modest dip last out (66) — form reversal angle, ready to bounce back to top form. (6) Trainer 'WILSON MELTON' has 2 horses in today's card all showing last-race improvement — barn appears sharp right now. (7) Averages 73.1 speed pts in today's distance/surface configuration vs 58.0 in other configs (8 qualifying starts) — returning to ideal setup. (8) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 7/10 — angles: Stable on Fire, Closer in Pace Duel, Early Speed Edge, Return to Proven Setup, Form Reversal.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Rising in class today ($12,500 → $16,000). (2) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (3) Speed average (70) well below field median (76). (4) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 10 recent starts). (5) Tends to fade in the stretch at similar distances (6 of 10 starts). (6) Trip note from last race: Broke in; 3p; empty.

✓ Positives:(1) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (31%). (2) Career-best speed figure (65) recorded in last 1-2 starts — peaking form. (3) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (33%). (4) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 85 vs field 79). (5) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (6) Fourth race back from a 285-day layoff — often the peak fitness race. (7) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['F', 'L', 'S', 'T']) yet still finished 4th — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (8) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 7/10 — angles: Career-Best Recent Figure, Troubled Trip Comeback, Closer in Pace Duel, Early Speed Edge, Classic Fourth Race Pattern.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (2) Limited experience at today's distance (1 start). (3) Moving from a sprint to a route today. (4) Poor record at this track (0 wins from 6 starts). (5) Trip note from last race: Stalk3-5p; flatten str. (6) 0 wins from 6 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

✓ Positives:(1) Dropping in class today ($40,000 → $20,000). (2) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (29%). (3) Big last-race effort (67) — 22 pts above recent average. (4) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (39%). (5) Has a bullet work (fastest at track that day) — sharp conditioning signal. (6) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 85 vs field 79). (7) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (8) Fourth race back from a 323-day layoff — often the peak fitness race. (9) Speed improved +7 pts then +13 pts in last 2 starts (47 → 54 → 67) — trainer is progressively building fitness. (10) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['F', 'L', 'O', 'V']) yet still finished 3rd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (11) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 9/10 — angles: Big Last Effort, Form Surge, Bullet Workout, Closer in Pace Duel, Class Drop, Early Speed Edge, Troubled Trip Comeback, Classic Fourth Race Pattern.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (2) Speed average (51) well below field median (58). (3) Limited experience at today's distance (1 start). (4) Trip note from last race: Off pace 4-6p; evenly. (5) Consistently breaks behind post position (3 of last 5 starts). (6) Consistently runs wide at the first call (3 of last 5 starts). (7) Last race was career-best speed (67) — bounce risk after peak effort. (8) Two consecutive 5+ pt speed jumps (47 → 54 → 67) and last race speed is well above career average (51) — high bounce risk after back-to-back peak efforts.

This horse: The horse whose stats card is open is highlighted with a darker column background.

Winning Profiles

Axes: X: Win % from last 10 starts — Y: In-the-money % (top-3 finishes) from last 10 starts.
Quadrants: Consistent Winners (top-right): high win & ITM — reliable performers.
Place Threats (top-left): boards often but doesn’t win often — good exacta/trifecta angles.
Streaky (bottom-right): wins occasionally, misses the board often — all-or-nothing.
Developing (bottom-left): still finding form — longshot territory.
Reference Lines: Dashed lines mark field averages. Dots to the right win more; dots higher board more.
This horse: Highlighted with a gold border and larger dot.

AI Model Comparison

Winner Models (green): Mod1(W), Mod2(W), and Mod3(W) trained to predict race winners. Higher score = stronger contender.
Longshot Models (red): Mod1-LS, Mod2-LS, and Mod3-LS trained to find high-value longshots. Higher score = stronger longshot candidate.
Form Model (blue): Mod4 sequence model trained on recent form patterns. Higher score = stronger recent form profile.
This horse: Highlighted with a darker column background.

Race Pace Simulation

Race Pace Simulation Guide

Slider: Drag left→right to advance from gate to finish. Drag all the way back to reset the race.
Predicted Finish Order: Factors in contested pace burn, each horse’s effort curve (peaked-early vs. peaked-late), and wide trip cost from outside posts. Updated live when Track Bias changes.
Pace Scenario: Lone Speed: single E horse likely rates and holds. Contested: two E horses burn each other — closers benefit. Hot Pace: speed meltdown, deep closers thrive. Soft: no early speed, moderate fractions throughout.
Track Bias: Slider below canvas. −2 = strong closer/wet bias; +2 = strong speed/rail bias. Recomputes the predicted finish order.
Boxed Indicator: Dashed orange ring = horse is surrounded (rival ahead, rival behind, wall outside). In a real race this horse must find a clear path to run.
Running Styles: E/EE = early speed (rushes to rail). P = presser (stalks the pace). S = stalker. SS = slow starter / closer.
