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.

#1 · 38%

Claiming $16,000, for fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up, that have not won two races lifetime.

Claiming race — every starter can be bought for the claiming price out of the race, so owners risk losing a horse that's clearly best. That keeps the field evenly matched on ability.

● Track record at 1 1/16 Miles: 100.22

The shape is the story here: there's little established early speed, so a tactical horse can control soft fractions up front and prove hard to run down.

Our number tops on #1 Cara's Dreamweaver (a presser/stalker, M/L 3-2). Recent figures: 73 · 75 · 77. It hit the board last time and stays in form. Backup is #2 Smokeshow at 4-1. Use #3 Lucky Esther 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 #1 CARA'S DREAMWEAVER (3-2) — our number agrees.
  • #1 CARA'S DREAMWEAVER — our top number on the card, and the board's letting him go too cheap — we make him 30.5%, they've got 22.5%.
  • #2 SMOKESHOW — our #2 number, and the board's letting him go too cheap — we make him 17.7%, they've got 11.3%.
  • #3 LUCKY ESTHER — our #3 number, and the board's letting him go too cheap — we make him 16.9%, they've got 12.5%.

Model vs the morning line · analysis, not advice

  • #1 CARA'S DREAMWEAVER — we make it 30.5%, the morning line works out to 22.5%. That gap is the model's opinion, not a price; pools pay the final odds, and on our records these gaps haven't paid off.
  • #2 SMOKESHOW — we make it 17.7%, the morning line works out to 11.3%. That gap is the model's opinion, not a price; pools pay the final odds, and on our records these gaps haven't paid off.
  • #3 LUCKY ESTHER — we make it 16.9%, the morning line works out to 12.5%. That gap is the model's opinion, not a price; pools pay the final odds, and on our records these gaps haven't paid off.
  • Longshot the model rates above its line: #5 DARRENS DELIGHT (15-1) — our fair 5.1% is above the morning line's 3.5%; needs the trip to fall right.
