⚠ 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 7 recent starts). (3) Tends to fade in the stretch at similar distances (5 of 7 starts). (4) Trip note from last race: 2-3w;asked 4w;no kick. (5) 0 wins from 10 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

✓ Positives:(1) Speed average (56) well above field median (46). (2) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (38%). (3) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 86 vs field 77). (4) Late pace significantly above field median (LP: 64 vs field 60). (5) Fourth race back from a 77-day layoff — often the peak fitness race. (6) Career-best figure (71) buried in races 4–10 back — 24 pts above race median and 15 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (7) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 8/10 — angles: Class Superiority, Late Kick Advantage, Hot Jockey, Early Speed Edge, Hidden Figure, 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 9 recent starts). (3) Trip note from last race: Duel inside;gave way. (4) No workout in last 30 days despite 20 days since last race. (5) Post 7 in a 8-horse dirt sprint — wide draw forces extra ground and a difficult first-turn path. (6) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 8.6 pts: [47, 47, 56, 66, 62]) — unpredictable performer. (7) 0 wins from 10 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

✓ Positives:(1) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (48%). (2) Strong trainer/jockey combo - 3 wins from 5 starts (60%). (3) Big last-race effort (68) — 12 pts above recent average. (4) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (47%). (5) In the money in last 3 consecutive starts. (6) Speed improved +11 pts then +6 pts in last 2 starts (51 → 62 → 68) — trainer is progressively building fitness. (7) Trainer 'GREEN GREG' has 2 horses in today's card all showing last-race improvement — barn appears sharp right now. (8) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'L', 'S']) yet still finished 3rd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (9) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 10/10 — angles: Form Surge, Consistent In-The-Money, Hot Trainer-Jockey Pairing, Big Last Effort, Hot Trainer, Troubled Trip Comeback, Hot Jockey, Stable on Fire.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 8 recent starts). (2) Trip note from last race: Chased 5-4w;clear 3rd. (3) Last race was career-best speed (68) — bounce risk after peak effort. (4) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 9.7 pts: [68, 62, 51, 56, 43]) — unpredictable performer. (5) 0 wins from 8 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface. (6) First start at SRP — never raced here before (last seen at: SUN). (7) Two consecutive 5+ pt speed jumps (51 → 62 → 68) and last race speed is well above career average (56) — high bounce risk after back-to-back peak efforts.

✓ Positives:(1) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 88 vs field 84). (2) Returning from 35-day layoff with a bullet workout — trainer signaling extra readiness for today's spot. (3) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 4/10 — angles: Sharp Return Workout, Early Speed Edge.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Has not raced in 35 days. (2) Tends to fade in the stretch at similar distances (2 of 3 starts). (3) Trip note from last race: 3-w; no factor. (4) Last race was career-best speed (68) — bounce risk after peak effort. (5) No workout in last 30 days despite 35 days since last race. (6) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 13.3 pts: [68, 85, 55, 51, 63]) — unpredictable performer. (7) 0 wins from 7 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface. (8) First start at SRP — never raced here before (last seen at: SUN).

✓ Positives:(1) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (42%). (2) Late pace significantly above field median (LP: 84 vs field 76). (3) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'L']) yet still finished 3rd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (4) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 5/10 — angles: Hot Trainer, Late Kick Advantage, Troubled Trip Comeback.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 9 recent starts). (2) Poor record at this track (0 wins from 5 starts). (3) Trip note from last race: Rallied; 6w; willingly. (4) Consistently breaks behind post position (3 of last 5 starts). (5) Consistently runs wide at the first call (3 of last 5 starts). (6) 0 wins from 10 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

✓ Positives:(1) Dropping in class today ($7,500 → $5,000). (2) Fourth race back from a 89-day layoff — often the peak fitness race. (3) Career-best figure (91) buried in races 4–10 back — 22 pts above race median and 21 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (4) Averages 63.8 speed pts in today's distance/surface configuration vs 57.0 in other configs (5 qualifying starts) — returning to ideal setup. (5) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 6/10 — angles: Return to Proven Setup, Hidden Figure, Class Drop, Classic Fourth Race Pattern.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Speed average (60) well below field median (70). (2) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 5 recent starts). (3) Poor record at this track (0 wins from 5 starts). (4) Trip note from last race: Inside; no threat. (5) Consistently runs wide at the first call (3 of last 5 starts). (6) 0 wins from 10 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

✓ Positives:(1) In the money in last 3 consecutive starts. (2) Late pace significantly above field median (LP: 79 vs field 74). (3) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (4) Has won at today's distance (1430 yds) within the last 10 starts — proven ability at this trip. (5) Career-best figure (79) buried in races 4–10 back — 10 pts above race median and 7 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (6) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['B', 'D', 'L', 'S', 'T']) yet still finished 2nd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (7) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 8/10 — angles: Consistent In-The-Money, Late Kick Advantage, Troubled Trip Comeback, Hidden Figure, Won at This Distance, Closer in Pace Duel.

✓ Positives:(1) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (48%). (2) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (3) Strong speed 2 back (66), modest dip last out (60) — form reversal angle, ready to bounce back to top form. (4) Last race: surged from 7th at 1st call to 1rd/2nd at stretch but faded to 5th — hidden energy often signals next-race win. (5) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 6/10 — angles: Hot Jockey, Closer in Pace Duel, Form Reversal, Middle Move Upside.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Repeatedly beaten at this class level (3 of last 5 starts). (2) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 9 recent starts). (3) Trip note from last race: Stalk; 4w; bid; tired. (4) Has not won in last 10 starts despite career wins. (5) 0 wins from 10 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

✓ Positives:(1) Speed average (76) well above field median (69). (2) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (40%). (3) In the money in last 4 consecutive starts. (4) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 90 vs field 82). (5) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (6) Has won at SRP on dirt in the last 10 starts — proven at today's exact track/surface combo. (7) Career-best figure (96) buried in races 4–10 back — 27 pts above race median and 14 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (8) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'L', 'V']) yet still finished 1st — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (9) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 10/10 — angles: Class Superiority, Consistent In-The-Money, Hot Trainer, Troubled Trip Comeback, Won Here Before, Hidden Figure, Early Speed Edge, Closer in Pace Duel.

✓ Positives:(1) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (37%). (2) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (42%). (3) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 91 vs field 82). (4) Has won at today's distance (1430 yds) within the last 10 starts — proven ability at this trip. (5) Career-best figure (86) buried in races 4–10 back — 17 pts above race median and 20 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (6) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['B', 'D', 'F', 'L', 'S', 'U']) yet still finished 3rd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (7) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 6/10 — angles: Hot Trainer, Troubled Trip Comeback, Hot Jockey, Early Speed Edge, Hidden Figure, Won at This Distance.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Poor recent form - recent speed ratings well below career norm. (2) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (3) Trip note from last race: 3w; shuffled back. (4) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 9.8 pts: [64, 62, 66, 86, 73]) — unpredictable performer.

✓ Positives:(1) Career-best figure (82) buried in races 4–10 back — 16 pts above race median and 13 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Rising in class today ($5,000 → $7,500). (2) Repeatedly beaten at this class level (4 of last 5 starts). (3) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (4) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 7 recent starts). (5) Tends to fade in the stretch at similar distances (5 of 7 starts). (6) Trip note from last race: Vied 2w; gave way. (7) Has not won in last 10 starts despite career wins. (8) Rising in class ($5,000 → $7,500) after finishing 6 last out — double negative. (9) 0 wins from 10 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

✓ Positives:(1) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (42%). (2) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (38%). (3) Late pace significantly above field median (LP: 76 vs field 72). (4) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (5) Fourth race back from a 68-day layoff — often the peak fitness race. (6) Has won at today's distance (990 yds) within the last 10 starts — proven ability at this trip. (7) Career-best figure (75) buried in races 4–10 back — 9 pts above race median and 17 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (8) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 8/10 — angles: Hot Trainer, Late Kick Advantage, Hot Jockey, Hidden Figure, Won at This Distance, Closer in Pace Duel, Classic Fourth Race Pattern.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Rising in class today ($5,000 → $7,500). (2) Poor recent form - recent speed ratings well below career norm. (3) Poor record at this track (0 wins from 8 starts). (4) Trip note from last race: Saved ground;no threat. (5) 0 wins from post 6 in 3 recent starts. (6) Rising in class ($5,000 → $7,500) after finishing 5 last out — double negative. (7) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 8.4 pts: [54, 57, 58, 68, 74]) — unpredictable performer.

✓ Positives:(1) Speed average (77) well above field median (66). (2) Big last-race effort (92) — 21 pts above recent average. (3) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (39%). (4) Late pace significantly above field median (LP: 80 vs field 72). (5) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'U', 'V']) yet still finished 2nd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (6) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 9/10 — angles: Class Superiority, Big Last Effort, Late Kick Advantage, Troubled Trip Comeback, Hot Jockey.
⚠ 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 4 recent starts). (3) Trip note from last race: Vied 3 wide; hung. (4) Last race was career-best speed (92) — bounce risk after peak effort. (5) Dropping in class in consecutive starts ($25,000 → $15,000 → $10,000). (6) Post 9 in a 9-horse dirt sprint — wide draw forces extra ground and a difficult first-turn path. (7) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 9.0 pts: [92, 72, 71, 71, 76]) — unpredictable performer.

✓ Positives:(1) Returning from 41-day layoff with a recent workout. (2) Big last-race effort (64) — 10 pts above recent average. (3) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (4) Fourth race back from a 134-day layoff — often the peak fitness race. (5) Has won at today's distance (1430 yds) within the last 10 starts — proven ability at this trip. (6) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['L', 'O', 'S']) yet still finished 4th — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (7) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 8/10 — angles: Big Last Effort, Troubled Trip Comeback, Won at This Distance, Closer in Pace Duel, Classic Fourth Race Pattern.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Has not raced in 41 days. (2) Speed average (56) well below field median (65). (3) Trip note from last race: Ins;angl 3w;no kick. (4) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 10.4 pts: [64, 43, 55, 65, 69]) — unpredictable performer.

✓ Positives:(1) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (53%). (2) Career-best speed figure (77) recorded in last 1-2 starts — peaking form. (3) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (42%). (4) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (5) Strong speed 2 back (77), modest dip last out (71) — form reversal angle, ready to bounce back to top form. (6) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['B', 'D', 'O', 'S', 'T']) yet still finished 2nd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (7) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 8/10 — angles: Career-Best Recent Figure, Hot Trainer, Troubled Trip Comeback, Hot Jockey, Form Reversal, Closer in Pace Duel.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Limited experience at today's distance (2 starts). (2) Moving from a route to a sprint today. (3) Trip note from last race: Bothered st;4-3w;game. (4) No workout in last 30 days despite 27 days since last race. (5) First start at SRP — never raced here before (last seen at: SUN).

✓ Positives:(1) Career-best speed figure (74) recorded in last 1-2 starts — peaking form. (2) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (3) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'L', 'S', 'T']) yet still finished 3rd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (4) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 6/10 — angles: Career-Best Recent Figure, Troubled Trip Comeback, Closer in Pace Duel.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 7 recent starts). (2) Trip note from last race: Inside rally;trying. (3) Consistently runs wide at the first call (3 of last 5 starts). (4) Post 7 in a 8-horse dirt sprint — wide draw forces extra ground and a difficult first-turn path.

✓ Positives:(1) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 90 vs field 84). (2) Strong speed 2 back (62), modest dip last out (55) — form reversal angle, ready to bounce back to top form. (3) Has won at today's distance (1430 yds) within the last 10 starts — proven ability at this trip. (4) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['B', 'D', 'O', 'S', 'T', 'U']) yet still finished 1st — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (5) Averages 60.3 speed pts in today's distance/surface configuration vs 50.6 in other configs (3 qualifying starts) — returning to ideal setup. (6) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 6/10 — angles: Form Reversal, Troubled Trip Comeback, Return to Proven Setup, Early Speed Edge, Won at This Distance.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (2) Speed average (54) well below field median (65). (3) Tends to fade in the stretch at similar distances (2 of 3 starts). (4) Trip note from last race: Hop st;bid 4w;dug in. (5) No workout in last 30 days despite 20 days since last race. (6) Post 8 in a 8-horse dirt sprint — wide draw forces extra ground and a difficult first-turn path. (7) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 9.6 pts: [55, 62, 46, 69, 48]) — unpredictable performer.

✓ Positives:(1) Big last-race effort (71) — 8 pts above recent average. (2) In the money in last 4 consecutive starts. (3) Has won at today's distance (1540 yds) within the last 10 starts — proven ability at this trip. (4) Has won at SRP on dirt in the last 10 starts — proven at today's exact track/surface combo. (5) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'L', 'V']) yet still finished 1st — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (6) Averages 58.2 speed pts in today's distance/surface configuration vs 50.2 in other configs (6 qualifying starts) — returning to ideal setup. (7) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 8/10 — angles: Consistent In-The-Money, Big Last Effort, Troubled Trip Comeback, Won at This Distance, Return to Proven Setup, Won Here Before.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Rising in class today ($7,500 → $12,500). (2) Speed average (55) well below field median (65). (3) Trip note from last race: Rallied; 4w; driving. (4) Last race was career-best speed (71) — bounce risk after peak effort. (5) Stepping up to $12,500 — highest class level in last 10 starts (previous high: $10,000). (6) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 12.0 pts: [71, 69, 55, 65, 42]) — unpredictable performer.

✓ Positives:(1) Speed average (71) well above field median (65). (2) Career-best speed figure (66) recorded in last 1-2 starts — peaking form. (3) Fourth race back from a 258-day layoff — often the peak fitness race. (4) Has won at today's distance (1540 yds) within the last 10 starts — proven ability at this trip. (5) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 8/10 — angles: Class Superiority, Career-Best Recent Figure, Won at This Distance, Classic Fourth Race Pattern.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (2) Tends to fade in the stretch at similar distances (3 of 4 starts). (3) Trip note from last race: Hop st;rush 2w;faded. (4) No workout in last 30 days despite 27 days since last race. (5) Post 7 in a 8-horse dirt sprint — wide draw forces extra ground and a difficult first-turn path. (6) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 10.3 pts: [66, 58, 80, 81, 79]) — unpredictable performer. (7) First start at SRP — never raced here before (last seen at: SUN, ALB, TP).

✓ Positives:(1) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (42%). (2) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (3) Has won at today's distance (1430 yds) within the last 10 starts — proven ability at this trip. (4) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'L', 'O', 'T', 'U']) yet still finished 3rd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (5) Averages 76.2 speed pts in today's distance/surface configuration vs 67.8 in other configs (6 qualifying starts) — returning to ideal setup. (6) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 6/10 — angles: Troubled Trip Comeback, Hot Jockey, Return to Proven Setup, Won at This Distance, Closer in Pace Duel.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Speed average (73) well below field median (80). (2) Trip note from last race: 3-4w;angl in;outkicked. (3) First start at SRP — never raced here before (last seen at: SUN).

✓ Positives:(1) In the money in last 10 consecutive starts. (2) Track specialist — 3 wins from 7 starts here (43%). (3) Late pace significantly above field median (LP: 88 vs field 79). (4) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (5) Fourth race back from a 49-day layoff — often the peak fitness race. (6) Has won at today's distance (1430 yds) within the last 10 starts — proven ability at this trip. (7) Has won at SRP on dirt in the last 10 starts — proven at today's exact track/surface combo. (8) Carries 5 lbs less than field median (118 lbs vs median 123 lbs). (9) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'S', 'T', 'V']) 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: Consistent In-The-Money, Late Kick Advantage, Troubled Trip Comeback, Track Specialist, Won Here Before, Won at This Distance, Closer in Pace Duel, Classic Fourth Race Pattern, Weight Advantage.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Trip note from last race: 4w; steady advance. (2) Post 9 in a 9-horse dirt sprint — wide draw forces extra ground and a difficult first-turn path.

✓ Positives:(1) Speed average (75) well above field median (66). (2) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (42%). (3) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 85 vs field 81). (4) Late pace significantly above field median (LP: 80 vs field 74). (5) Career-best figure (82) buried in races 4–10 back — 16 pts above race median and 7 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (6) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'F', 'L', 'U']) yet still finished 2nd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (7) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 9/10 — angles: Class Superiority, Late Kick Advantage, Troubled Trip Comeback, Hot Jockey, Hidden Figure, Early Speed Edge.
⚠ Concerns:(1) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 9 recent starts). (2) Trip note from last race: Fanned 5wd;duel;game. (3) Has not won in last 10 starts despite career wins. (4) No workout in last 30 days despite 23 days since last race. (5) 0 wins from 10 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

✓ Positives:(1) Speed average (73) well above field median (66). (2) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (48%). (3) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (39%). (4) Late pace significantly above field median (LP: 81 vs field 74). (5) Strong speed 2 back (75), modest dip last out (67) — form reversal angle, ready to bounce back to top form. (6) Trainer 'GREEN GREG' has 2 horses in today's card all showing last-race improvement — barn appears sharp right now. (7) Career-best figure (81) buried in races 4–10 back — 15 pts above race median and 6 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (8) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'L', 'T', 'V']) yet still finished 2nd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (9) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 10/10 — angles: Class Superiority, Hot Trainer, Late Kick Advantage, Form Reversal, Hot Jockey, Troubled Trip Comeback, Stable on Fire, Hidden Figure.
⚠ 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 10 recent starts). (3) Trip note from last race: Vied 3w; tired late. (4) Has not won in last 10 starts despite career wins. (5) Dropping in class in consecutive starts ($25,000 → $8,000 → $5,000). (6) Post 7 in a 9-horse dirt sprint — wide draw forces extra ground and a difficult first-turn path. (7) 0 wins from 10 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

- Form Model score (0–100) — AI sequence model trained on recent form patterns to capture momentum and trajectory. Higher = stronger recent form profile. Rank in parentheses shows position within the field.
- Win Prob
- LightGBM estimated win probability expressed as a percentage. This is a raw model output, not normalized to sum to 100% across the field — use it for comparison rather than as an absolute probability.
- Value Score
- Win Prob divided by the market-implied probability (derived from morning line). Values above 1.0 mean the model sees more win chance than the odds imply — a ★ star appears when Value Score ≥ 1.3, indicating a 30%+ model edge over the market.
- ML
- Morning line odds set by the track handicapper before wagering opens
- Overlay %
- How much the fair odds exceed the morning line, expressed as a percentage — positive values indicate value
- Fair Odds
- Model-derived fair-value odds based on estimated win probability
- O/U
- Overlay or Underlay — whether the horse offers value (O) or is overbet (U) relative to fair odds
Track Bias by Lane — SRP
Lane Bias Guide
- Bar Direction
- Bars above the line = more favorable lane • Bars below = less favorable, relative to the average at this track.
- Color
- Green = above-average advantage • Yellow = near-average • Red = below-average • Blue = this horse’s lane.
- Bias Score
- Derived from weighted average finishing positions across historical races at this track. Shown in the tooltip on hover. To use the bias score, calculate your handicap for the horse (e.g. finish position), then add (detrimental bias) or subtract (favorable bias) the bias score.
- Races
- Number of historical races used to compute each lane’s bias score.
Race Pace Bias — EE · Fast
Race Pace Bias Guide
- Bar Height & Direction
- Positive (green) = pace favors this horse • Negative (red) = pace works against this horse • Near-zero (amber) = neutral.
- Race Shape
- Projected race shape based on running styles of all horses (e.g. EE = two early horses, EP = one early presser).
- Pace Category
- FAST = contested early pace • LONE EARLY = one speed horse controlling pace • HONEST = moderate early pressure • SLOW = closers’ race.
- Flag (★)
- A star above the bar means this horse’s pace bias figure is ≥ 1.5 — a meaningful pace advantage or disadvantage.
Total Pace — SRP
Total Pace Guide
- Bar Segments
- Green = Early Pace (E1) • Amber = Mid Pace (E2) • Red = Late Pace (LP)
- Bar Height
- Total height = sum of E1 + E2 + LP average pace figures. Taller bars indicate a faster-paced horse overall.
- Grades & Rankings
- Hover to see each horse’s letter grade and ranking vs. other horses in this race (e.g. 2/9 = 2nd best of 9).
- Border
- Thicker border = this horse’s post position.
E1 / E2 / LP Pace Positions
E1 — Early
E2 — Mid
LP — Stretch
Performance vs. Peers
Performance vs. Peers Guide
- Bars (per post)
- Blue = avg career performance • Amber = avg last 3 races • Green = last race (improved vs. avg) • Red = last race (declined vs. avg)
- Trend Line
- Angled line above the bars: rising = improving form • falling = declining form.
- Horizontal Line
- Field average — the mean career performance of all horses in this race.
- Color Circles
- Standard post-position colors below each lane — same as the Total Pace chart.
- Border
- Thicker border = this horse’s post position.
Figure Comparison
Figure Comparison
- Rating
- The three Pick Pony algorithm ratings (Algo 1, Algo 2, Algo 3) that make up the overall PP AI Rating — higher is a stronger contender rating.
- Speed
- Career average speed, recent 3-race average, and last-race speed figure — spot horses in improving or declining form.
- Pace
- Average Early (E1), Mid (E2), and Stretch (LP) pace figures — reveals pace-setters vs. closers vs. all-the-way types.
- This horse
- The horse whose stats card is open is highlighted with a darker column background.
Winning Profiles
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
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.
