Bubbles: Color = surface: green (turf), brown (dirt), blue (synthetic); Top number = finishing position; bottom number in parentheses = starting post position; Height above line = beaten lengths — closer means a smaller margin; Border = track conditions: green (FST/GD/FM), yellow (WF/SL/YLD), red (SY/MY/FRZ/SFT/HVY)
Connecting Line: Solid = good conditions; dashed = bad conditions
Line Symbol: ▲ Triangle = sprint (7f or less); ● Circle = route (more than 7f)
Days Between Races: Small number above each bubble (e.g. 19d) = days since the previous race — helps spot freshness, layoffs, and tight scheduling.
Shaded Band (Bollinger): Highlights volatility — a wider band means more variation in recent performance
Performance Trend: Straight line showing the overall performance direction — angled up = improving, angled down = declining
Dashed Reference Line: AI Opponent = AI analysis class-level par for the race

✓ Positives:(1) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (49%). (2) Big last-race effort (64) — 8 pts above recent average. (3) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (45%). (4) Late pace significantly above field median (LP: 68 vs field 62). (5) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (6) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['B', 'D', '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: Big Last Effort, Hot Trainer, Closer in Pace Duel, Troubled Trip Comeback, Late Kick Advantage, Hot Jockey.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 6 recent starts). (2) Trip note from last race: In air st; inside bid. (3) Last race was career-best speed (64) — bounce risk after peak effort. (4) No workout in last 30 days despite 23 days since last race. (5) 0 wins from 8 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

✓ Positives:(1) Speed average (68) well above field median (63). (2) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (3) Fourth race back from a 76-day layoff — often the peak fitness race. (4) Has won at PEN on dirt in the last 10 starts — proven at today's exact track/surface combo. (5) Career-best figure (74) buried in races 4–10 back — 11 pts above race median and 6 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (6) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 8/10 — angles: Class Superiority, Closer in Pace Duel, Won Here Before, Hidden Figure, Classic Fourth Race Pattern.

⚠ Concerns:(1) 0 wins from 4 career starts on off tracks. (2) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 5 recent starts). (3) Trip note from last race: Inside early;no factor. (4) 0 wins from post 1 in 3 recent starts.

✓ Positives:(1) Big last-race effort (74) — 32 pts above recent average. (2) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'L', 'U']) yet still finished 2nd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (3) Averages 65.8 speed pts in today's distance/surface configuration vs 54.3 in other configs (4 qualifying starts) — returning to ideal setup. (4) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 6/10 — angles: Big Last Effort, Troubled Trip Comeback, Return to Proven Setup.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (2) Speed average (59) well below field median (67). (3) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 4 recent starts). (4) Trip note from last race: Dug in gamely. (5) Last race was career-best speed (74) — bounce risk after peak effort. (6) No workout in last 30 days despite 21 days since last race. (7) Speed figures are highly erratic over last 5 starts (σ = 19.6 pts: [74, 23, 47, 57, 65]) — unpredictable performer.

✓ Positives:(1) Early pace significantly above field median (E1: 90 vs field 87). (2) Has won at today's distance (1320 yds) within the last 10 starts — proven ability at this trip. (3) Career-best figure (86) buried in races 4–10 back — 14 pts above race median and 5 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (4) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'L', 'U']) yet still finished 4th — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (5) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 6/10 — angles: Troubled Trip Comeback, Hidden Figure, Early Speed Edge, Won at This Distance.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Rising in class today ($7,500 → $10,000). (2) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (3) Trip note from last race: Dueled 2w; weakened. (4) Was the betting favorite in the last race but finished off the board. (5) No workout in last 30 days despite 29 days since last race. (6) Rising in class ($7,500 → $10,000) after finishing 4 last out — double negative. (7) First start at PEN — never raced here before (last seen at: PRX).

✓ Positives:(1) Speed average (77) well above field median (66). (2) Late pace significantly above field median (LP: 80 vs field 72). (3) Returning from 36-day layoff with a bullet workout — trainer signaling extra readiness for today's spot. (4) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'F', 'O', 'S', 'T']) yet still finished 3rd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (5) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 8/10 — angles: Class Superiority, Troubled Trip Comeback, Late Kick Advantage, Sharp Return Workout.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Has not raced in 36 days. (2) Consider there will be likely pace pressure in this race - multiple E types entered. (3) 0 wins from 5 career starts on off tracks. (4) Poor record at this distance (0 wins from 6 recent starts). (5) Trip note from last race: Inside; steady effort. (6) No workout in last 30 days despite 36 days since last race. (7) 0 wins from 10 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

✓ Positives:(1) Speed average (59) well above field median (52). (2) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (60%). (3) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (49%). (4) Late pace significantly above field median (LP: 76 vs field 68). (5) Closer/presser in a race with pace pressure — ideal race setup for late runners. (6) Career-best figure (76) buried in races 4–10 back — 24 pts above race median and 18 pts above recent form — market has forgotten the peak effort. (7) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['D', 'F', 'O', 'S', 'U']) yet still finished 3rd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (8) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 9/10 — angles: Class Superiority, Hot Trainer, Closer in Pace Duel, Troubled Trip Comeback, Late Kick Advantage, Hidden Figure, Hot Jockey.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Moving from a sprint to a route today. (2) Trip note from last race: Gained ins;up for show. (3) 0 wins from 6 starts on dirt in last 10 — repeated failure on today's surface.

AI Performances Chart

AI Speed AI Opponent Performance Trend

Chart Guide (2.0.35)

Bubbles: Color = surface: green (turf), brown (dirt), blue (synthetic); Top number = finishing position; bottom number in parentheses = starting post position; Height above line = beaten lengths — closer means a smaller margin; Border = track conditions: green (FST/GD/FM), yellow (WF/SL/YLD), red (SY/MY/FRZ/SFT/HVY)
Connecting Line: Solid = good conditions; dashed = bad conditions
Line Symbol: ▲ Triangle = sprint (7f or less); ● Circle = route (more than 7f)
Days Between Races: Small number above each bubble (e.g. 19d) = days since the previous race — helps spot freshness, layoffs, and tight scheduling.
Shaded Band (Bollinger): Highlights volatility — a wider band means more variation in recent performance
Performance Trend: Straight line showing the overall performance direction — angled up = improving, angled down = declining
Dashed Reference Line: AI Opponent = AI analysis class-level par for the race

✓ Positives:(1) Hot trainer - high ITM rate (51%). (2) Career-best speed figure (63) recorded in last 1-2 starts — peaking form. (3) Hot jockey — high ITM rate (62%). (4) Had documented trouble last race (codes: ['B', 'D', 'F', 'L', 'O', 'S', 'T']) yet still finished 2nd — a clean trip today sets up a form reversal. (5) Pick Pony Daily Edge Radar pick — value score 7/10 — angles: Career-Best Recent Figure, Hot Trainer, Troubled Trip Comeback, Hot Jockey.

⚠ Concerns:(1) Limited experience at today's distance (2 starts). (2) Unproven on dirt surface (2 starts). (3) Trip note from last race: Off a step slow; bid. (4) No workout in last 30 days despite 29 days since last race.

LGBM: 100 (1/5) CatBoost: 100 (1/5) XGB: 100 (1/5) LGBM-LS: 100 (1/5) CatBoost-LS: 100 (1/5) XGB-LS: 95 (2/5) Win Prob: 68.7% Value Score: 2.57 ★ ML: 2.00 (9/5) Overlay %: -4.50 Fair Odds: 3.49 (5/2) O/U: Fair

Score Definitions

LGBM: LightGBM model score (0–100) — machine-learning composite rating among field contenders (higher = stronger). The number in parentheses (e.g. 1/9) shows this horse’s rank out of the field size.
CatBoost: CatBoost model score (0–100) — gradient boosting rating among field contenders (higher = stronger). The number in parentheses shows rank within the field.
XGB: XGBoost model score (0–100) — ensemble gradient boosting rating among field contenders (higher = stronger). The number in parentheses shows rank within the field.
LGBM-LS: LightGBM Longshot ranker (0–100) — trained with odds-weighted samples that upweight longshot winners. Higher = stronger longshot profile. Rank in parentheses shows position within the field.
CatBoost-LS: CatBoost Longshot ranker (0–100) — equivalent longshot model using CatBoost. Higher = stronger longshot profile.
XGB-LS: XGBoost Longshot ranker (0–100) — equivalent longshot model using XGBoost. Higher = stronger longshot profile.
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 — PEN

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 — E · Lone early

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 — PEN

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

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

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): LGBM, CatBoost, and XGBoost trained to predict race winners. Higher score = stronger contender.
Longshot Models (red): LGBM-LS, CatBoost-LS, and XGB-LS trained to find high-value longshots. Higher score = stronger longshot candidate.
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.
