How to read these marks
- 1 2 3
- Our top three by the card model's win chance. Tap “Our order” to sort by it.
- Win %, Fair
- The card model's chance to win, and the odds that chance works out to with no takeout. Fair is green when the model rates the horse above its morning line (the line scaled to add up to 100%).
- Tier A B C ?
- The field ranked on recent speed figures and the morning line together: A = top three, B = next three, C = the rest, ? = no figures yet.
- 71 60 72
- Last three speed figures, newest first. “@trip 75” = best figure at today's distance (within 30 yards) on this surface.
- ▲▲ ▲ ► ▼ ▼▼
- Form: last figure against the average of the three before it. ▲ = up 3 or more, ▲▲ = up 8 or more, ► = within 3, ▼ / ▼▼ = down. The number is the difference.
- ≡ ↕
- ≡ steady: the last four figures sit close together. ↕ up-and-down: they swing widely.
- ★
- Best figure in the field at today's distance and surface, from two or more tries, not tied. When that horse isn't in our top three it gets a “Distance horse” note above the field.
- ▲ ▼ chips
- Handicapping angles for or against the horse. LS = longshot read: 8-1 or more on the morning line and the model rates it higher than that line.
These marks describe the past performances. None of them is proven to beat the odds: in our test of 100 handicapping angles, nothing did better than the final odds, and the morning-line favourite wins more races than our top-ranked horse. Read them as notes, not as a reason to bet.
Race conditions and our readpace, conditions, story
CHARLES TOWN · RACE 4
UPCOMINGJ.E. Casy Memorial Stakes
Stakes, for fillies, 2-year-olds, restricted to state-bred (registered) horses.
Stakes race — the top class. Owners pay entry/nomination fees that build the purse, which draws the best horses available.
● Track record at 7 Furlongs: 82.68
The shape is the story here: the early pace looks honest rather than contested — expect a fairly run race where class and trip decide it, not pace collapse.
Our number tops on #4 Crystal Veil (early speed, M/L 3-5). Recent figures: 69 · 71 · 73. It exits a win and is clearly doing well. Backup is #2 On A Pedestal at 5-2. Use #3 A Notable Nature in exotic structures.
What would change our mind: a key scratch that reshapes the early pace, a sharp turf-to-dirt or surface switch off the rail, or live money showing up on a horse the board had dismissed. Watch the tote late.
At a glance: model vs the morning line
At a glance
- Market favourite #4 CRYSTAL VEIL (3-5) — our number agrees.
- #4 CRYSTAL VEIL — our top number on the card, about right at the windows (45.3% to their 49.9%).
- #2 ON A PEDESTAL — our #2 number, about right at the windows (24.0% to their 22.8%).
- #3 A NOTABLE NATURE — our #3 number, about right at the windows (18.0% to their 16.0%).
Model vs the morning line
- The model and the morning line roughly agree on this field.
Pacewho goes to the front
Pace
Pressed Pace. Speed under pressure from multiple pressers. Likely honest pace, slight closer benefit.
Likely leader: #4 Crystal Veil; pressure from #3 A Notable Nature, #2 On A Pedestal; the shape helps #1 Kickin' With Caity, #2 On A Pedestal; and works against #3 A Notable Nature, #4 Crystal Veil.
Number = last-race early-pace figure. Green border = the shape helps; red = it works against.
