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.

Card model top pick
#5 · 36%

Stakes, for 3-year-olds.

Stakes race — the top class. Owners pay entry/nomination fees that build the purse, which draws the best horses available.

● Breed: Quarter Horse

● Track record at 440 Yards: 21.03

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 #5 Eagle On A June Bug (a tactical type, M/L 8-5). Recent figures: 102 · 112 · 114. Backup is #9 Aj Cyclone at 7-2. Use #4 Point Blank Range 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 #5 EAGLE ON A JUNE BUG (8-5) — our number agrees.
  • #5 EAGLE ON A JUNE BUG — our top number on the card, about right at the windows (29.4% to their 29.2%).
  • #9 AJ CYCLONE — our #2 number, about right at the windows (18.9% to their 16.9%).
  • #4 POINT BLANK RANGE — our #3 number, and the board's letting him go too cheap — we make him 17.6%, they've got 15.2%.

Model vs the morning line · analysis, not advice

  • #4 POINT BLANK RANGE — we make it 17.6%, the morning line works out to 15.2%. 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.
