Horse Racing Message Board Forum Search Engine

2009-01-01T13:38:00.001-08:00

Was playing around with some new tools and decided we should have a Search Engine just for Horse Racing message boards. So when you enter a search term in the box, it returns results from the horse racing forums listed below. I'm sure I'm not the only one that has spent copious time doing searches on my favorite message board, so this is a meta search, it returns results from ALL of them at the same time, so you can see if anyone has been talking about that subject on any of the boards.

You can either bookmark the search engine as a stand alone page, or integrate it into your website by grabbing the gadget (you'll get what is over there in the corner of this blog>>>).

Frisco Star Returns

2008-04-02T16:59:00.000-07:00

In 2005 I was at the California Fair track in Santa Rosa and watched a 2 yo. out of More Than Ready make his debut, and absolutely obliterate the track record, covering 5.5F in 1:01 and change, earning a 102 Beyer. Sharing the same connections as that year's superstar Lost in The Fog (Aleo/Gilchrist), he garnered a little attention as a potential Derby prospect, but only raced twice more, winning an allowance and a small stakes before retiring due to injury.

I had added him to my watch list after his first race, and after he retired I forgot all about him...until, lo and behold, he pops up a few months ago having worked out down in Florida. Hey now, what the hells going on? Well apparently poor Frisco didn't work out so well at stud. He covered only 17 mares, resulting in 2 dropped foals, one of which sold for a measely $2,500.

So Frisco is back, making his return in the Hilton Garden Inn Stakes ($85K) at Tampa this Saturday. Can't help but root for the guy, things didn't turned out as planned for a horse with such a promising debut, I hope he's at least healthy and happy to be back racing, and still able to flash some of that speed. Should be fun.

Power Rating Talk

2008-03-29T18:43:00.000-07:00

So I'm about to make some more changes, thought I'd log in with where I am right now. I don't mean any of this to come off like I know what I'm doing, because I'd be the first to admit I don't, I'm just trying to figure it out.

What I'm working on right now is just one piece of it, Dirt Sprints, Non Maiden, 3yo and Up. Posted are some graphs showing some base line information.

The first graph shows the Win % of all the horses by Odds rank, side by side with Win % by my power rating rank. You can see the top choice of the public wins at around 35%, while my power rating is around 31%.

The second graph shows the ROI by Odds Rank, side by side with the ROI by my power rating rank. My horses, top ranked, losed around 8.5c on the dollar, public choice almost twice that. But keep in mind these are in sample horses, the rating is built on the same data you see here. Need to do significantly better because we expect to see a big drop off when we shift to new data.

The third graph is just another breakout of Win % by Power Rating Gap, i.e. the rating numeric difference relative to the top ranked horse (or if the top rated, the 2nd rated). You can see how nice the curve is, this is the basis for an odds line.

So the changes I'm putting now are moving some of the data over to track specific from generic all burger. I have two components each that are being factored into the power rating for early pace and late pace: rank and gap. I am adding in track specific data for early and late RANK only. I want to do a lot of this piece meal so I can see what effect it has. But it does take a long time to rebuild the database between changes, so I won't be doing everything singly.

Anyhooters -- that is what I'm up to right now. I'll be updating these three graphs in the next few days. There is something a little quirky about the way this program works....I'm not going to get into it now, but by adding some track specific data you lose the ability to have generic data for the other tracks. I'm not worrying about that right now as I have majority of all races covered...but it will have to be dealt with.

Track/Factor Profiles

2008-03-29T10:25:00.000-07:00

So I've finished with my first pass at gathering track specific data. Posted are the E to L graphs I talked about earlier, the ratio of the Impact values of Early Speed to Late Speed. This is 2007 data, if a track is missing it is because I didn't have at least 100 races as a sample. Turf races will require both 2006 and 2007 data to get the number of races to make it at all worthwhile.

The graphs are large, I think you should be able to expand them after you click on them, if not I can break them up into 4 or 5 smaller charts each. Anyway, I think they are a nifty way to see at a glance a tracks (or this factor at that track) relative performance.

Easter Weekend // Power Rating Talk

2008-03-21T18:12:00.000-07:00

Hi All,

I'll be gone for several days, visiting some family. I hope to have the Track Profiles done and all the pretty pictures posted by the end of next week. The underlying data for each track is what I'm interested in, I'll be using that within the power ratings, but hopefully the track profiles will be a nice visual aid.

I plan to spend the next few months building and refining a power rating, it takes a lot of time querying all the different tracks and surfaces to begin to build up the data required. I'll be posting as I make changes, what I'm incorporating, before and after win % and ROI, things like that. Right now I'm using only 2007 data, so I can't slice and dice things up too fine or the sample sizes become an issue. So I'm strictly breaking things out by Turf/Dirt/Poly, Sprints and Routes. No class distinctions for now, or further distance breakdowns.

So I'm basically in the process of taking a General Power Rating, one where the underlying Impact Values are drawn from all tracks, and pushing it down to the more specific level. Obviously Early and Late tendencies play a big part of what makes a track unique, so that is the first push. Certain tracks and distances due to configuration the post position has a large impact, I plan on capturing that. If I ultimately decide to include Morning Line in the mix I'd want to profile each track. Specific trainer angles, Sire FTS performance, and all the more esoteric data is further down the line.

The factors presently included are:

Recency (last race)
ConnectionsRating
EquipChange
ML
FormRating
WorkoutRating
CompoundEarlySpeed
CompoundLateSpeed
CompoundSpeedFigure

some are rank only, some are both ranks and gaps, others are numeric only. They total 13 factors in all. I am adjusting some of the Impact Values by ROI to exaggerate them more (factor shows low IV spread from top to bottom, but higher ROI spread). All are weighted equally right now.

Anyway, that's all I have time for right now. Hope you all have a fine Easter Weekend.

Thoroughbred Rescue

2008-03-18T07:44:00.000-07:00

I thought I'd encourage anyone who may visit to make a donation to any of the outstanding Thoroughbred horse retirement and rescue operations that exist around the country. Noble organizations doing fine work, and I think part of our responsibility as racing enthusiasts to help ensure a comfortable retirement for our brave friends.

Not a complete list, but just some of the charities that exist:

Track/Factor Profiling

2008-03-16T09:59:00.000-07:00

I'm working right now on breaking down each track and surface, and profiling it by Early and Late speed figures. I wanted a graphical picture of the relative predictiveness of both early and late numbers. The easiest way to do that seemed to be figuring out the ratio of the Impact value of the Early Speed rating to the Late Speed rating I use.

So say at Bay Meadows, the I.V. for Top Ranked Early Speed in Dirt Sprints is 2.0778. The I.V. for Top Ranked Late Pace is 1.4383. The ratio then is 1.44462. So the IV for early is 44% greater than late. I like this because it we can put all the tracks on a continuum and it's a pretty apples to apples comparison. Then we can group them by things like track circumference, length of the stretch, and see if we find any similiarities. A track that is in the middle somewhere, it doesn't mean neither of these two factors are predicitive, it just means they are equally predictive. You can see from the chart that only FG in this sample actually has a bias towards Late. It runs much more like a Turf course, in fact more Late than most Turf course sprints do.

These are non-maiden 3yo and up. I'm doing the same for Dirt Routes, and Turf Sprints and Routes. There is of course some overlap, some of the horses are going to be tagged as ranked 1st both early and late. I'm going to do some work to get a handle on how often that happens, and either try to zero it out, or at least make note of it.

The Big A -- Saturday March 15th

2008-03-14T20:51:00.001-07:00

3/15 Results: DEATH! Not just at AQU, today I've been slaughtered everywhere. Just one of those days. I thought they gave us a really nice shot in Race 7 when the 1 and the 8 took a lot of money, both going off around 2-1. Played the 2 and the 4 to win @ 5 and 6-1 I believe -- no love for us when McLovin wired 'em, with Hepcat running 2nd.

_____________________________________________________________

Same format as before, tho in some cases I have added in a second odds line that I have been working on. It is only ready for non-Maiden Dirt Sprints. Looking at horses overlaid to fair odds (just equal to or greater than), rank of 1, I see a roughly 5% win improvement and 7% ROI bump using the new line. So for non-maiden sprints, that is the third line you see. I will replace the second line altogether in the near future, but for now it's interesting to see them next to each other, I want to watch what happens when they disagree.

As for plays, Race 2 the 8 PRAIRIE BOY pops as a possible interest.

The Big A -- Friday March 14th

2008-03-13T21:28:00.000-07:00

3-14 Result: some tasty cake! Of our 3 ML overlays of interest, one $11.40 winner.

First things first, "Cake or Death", what is that all about? It's a bit by Brit comic Eddie Izzard, describing what the Inquisition would have been like had it been run by the Church of England. You can watch a snippet of it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNjcuZ-LiSY

"Cake"..is also of course a modern slang for cheddar..I mean money. As bettors, all our wagers then end in...Cake or Death. Cake please!

Format is ML // Fair Odds. This is a 100% line, any overlay requirements need to be yet factored in by the user. Any scratches you'd want to renormalize the line to 100%, of course. Also, entries are done seperately, so you'd want to factor that in if both go.

Maybe we get some action in Race 2 with the 7 HERALD SQUARE, Race 7 with the 5 THUNDERING SUCCESS, Race 9 with the 10 CLIMB TO THE STARS. Good luck!

Everyone loves picks, right? OK, not so much. But the little project I'm working on now will take a some more time to complete, and rather than have nothing going on here, I'm going to start posting some form of odds line for the Aqueduct meet currently running.

Look at 'em, critique 'em, laugh at 'em, berate 'em, post your own and go heads up with 'em. I'll start tomorrow, Friday March 14th. They will be the muzak in the background to the hopefully more interesting things we can get into.

Welcome!
