Race 5 at Aqueduct, Sat, Feb. 24

The program had the exacta order correct in another race, this time at Aqueduct in the 5th, a $16K claiming race at 1 mi. on the dirt for fillies and mares four-years-old and up. The first selection was #7 Whistler’s Style with a total win probability of 18.48% versus odds of 4-1. The second selection was #6 Divine Cross with a total win probability of 16.06% compared to odds of 10-1 (overlay). The $1 exacta paid $64.75. This race is a remarkable result for the program because Whistler’s Style as the first selection had a very low SPD win estimate. It was the horses E1 and E2 win estimates that boosted the horse in the final calculation.

Race 5 at Gulfstream, Sat., Feb. 24

The program had a nice result today in the 5th race at Gulfstream, a $10K claiming race run at 1 1/16 mi. on the dirt for fillies and mares four-year-old and up. The first selection was #1 Worldly Beauty with a total win probability of 30.19% (comparable to about 2-1) versus odds of 5-1. Worldly Beauty held off a late challenge by #9 Nothing But Pumps at 4-1, who received a FIT2 checkmark for its superior LP win estimate of 58.1%. This is precisely the kind of race setup a handicapper should be looking for with a first selection as an overlay.

The Rebel Stakes Preview, Fri., Feb. 23

Here are the projections for tomorrow’s G2 $1.25m Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn, run at 1 1/16 mi. on the dirt for three year olds. The program is favoring #7 Timberlake with a 46.03% total win probability, equating close to 1-1 odds. Note that the horse’s morning line is 1.2 or 6/5, showing how accurate Pro-Handicap Wizard’s theoretical odds are as an independent program. Timberlake appears to be a classic horse, projecting 1st in SPD in the simulation at 86.5%, 1st in E2 at 58.7% and 1st in LP at 53.1%. The horse is also the class in the race with a win percentage adjusted for stakes of 20.7% (4-1 equivalent). With its dominance, Timberlake looks set for victory and should go off at a short price.
