How to Use
The Track-IQ Report and the Overlay Map are designed to serve complementary analytical roles in the evaluation of a race. The Track-IQ Report focuses on the internal structure of the race and the principal contenders within it. It presents refined odds, including odds integration of turf specific data, along with structural indicators such as Chaos Index and Field Risk, which help characterize the competitiveness and stability of the race environment. In this sense, the report is intended to provide specificity—a closer analytical examination of the most relevant horses and the overall dynamics likely to shape the outcome.
The Overlay Map, by contrast, provides a comprehensive mathematical overview of the entire field. Instead of emphasizing only the top contenders, it displays how each entrant’s calculated indicators relate to the morning line and live market odds, allowing users to quickly identify where horses may be priced at a discount, fair value, or premium relative to their statistical profile. This broader perspective helps reveal betting opportunities that may not be immediately apparent through traditional race analysis. For turf races, the Overlay Map may present two analytical views: one derived from the full data set incorporating both dirt and turf performance, and a second derived from turf-only data, enabling users to compare projections under different surface assumptions. Taken together, the Track-IQ Report provides structural insight and contender analysis, while the Overlay Map supplies a field-wide mathematical framework for interpreting price and value within the wagering market.
