The AI-enabled program had another good result in the 4th race at Gulfstream, a $35K claiming race at 1 mi. on the turf for four-year-olds and up. Though it did not have the winner with the Primary Selection, the program had the order of the place and show horses correct with #9 Yankee Drummer at 22-1 and #3 Back in the Saddle at 11-1. Both were significant overlays versus their theoretical odds of 4-1 and 5-1. The result also shows the success of Track-IQ’s turf approach, which filters for turf data and optimizes the metrics as predictive variables for sprint and route races. Yankee Drummer nearly won, losing by a nose to #4 Souper Attentive at 5-1. For the place, Yankee Drummer paid $18.80.
