The Premium Race Report for Tampa Bay Downs has been completed and is ready for launch this Sat. It will be available for purchase on the Purchase page. The Report has been compiled and optimized from the back-testing of metrics in hundreds of races in 2025.
The Tampa Bay Downs report differentiates races by recognizing that sprint and route contests—and dirt and turf surfaces—behave very differently in how races are decided. Sprint races are evaluated with an emphasis on early race shape and the ability to stay involved through pressure, while route races are approached as longer-form contests where balance, efficiency, and sustained positioning matter more than raw early advantage. Likewise, dirt races are treated as more volatile and intent-driven, whereas turf races are analyzed as more rhythm-dependent and tactically structured. By adapting its interpretation to these distinct environments, the report reflects how Tampa races actually unfold, rather than applying a single generic model across all distances and surfaces.
