Track Trends

Mixture of successful running styles suggesting a fair track. The rail was good but not a clear advantage.

The rail was good, but no apparent advantage, as the track played fairly. 

The track played fairly.

The track played fairly.

It's fair to say that inside speed was an advantage, though other than the 6th race, when a longshot first time starter wired the field, the results were very logical. However, an outside closer dominated the 5th race. Still, worth following as saving ground, and maybe more being forward, was a likely advantage. 

The track played fairly with a mix of successful running styles. 

The track played fairly with a mix of successful running styles, with race dynamics playing a role, and no perceived bias. The rail was fine but we also saw effetive running wide.

The rail was an advantage, as was speed, but how strong is debatable, as we saw some effective closing. 

The track played fairly.

There is an argument that inside speed was beneficial, especially based on the longshot winner of the 4th race, but much like prior days, we say enough effective closing to suggest there was not a significant bias. Probably worth following. 

 While we saw some speed race effectively, ultimately the track played fairly. 

The track produced quick times. While inside speed did well, we saw enough closers race effectively, especially as the day wore on to suggest the surface was at least close to fair.

With only one racecontested, hard to determine any bias, but it sure seemed like a similar track to 11/29.

The was an extreme inside bias, not speed necessarily, but horses that were able to save ground for at least the majority of the race benefitted immensely. The races where outside closers performed well were pretty much a result of strongly contested paces, which happened as the day wore on and riders became more and more aware of the bias.

While the rail was good, overall, the track played fairly.

Overall the Main Track played fairly, though there may have been a slight edge to being forward. Today was the last day of turf racing and both races appeared to play fairly.

There were a fair mix of speed and closers running well throughout the day, with a lot of logical results, and while much of the best running was done outside, we saw enough horses run well inside to say the track was fair.

All surfaces, turf and dirt, played fairly.

While the rail was good on the Main Track, it was not a significant advantage, as overall the track played fairly. There were two races on the Outer Turf, rails at 36 feet, and they appeared to play fairly. There will be no more racing on the Inner Turf until 2026.

Racing was cancelled after two races, both on dirt, and the track appeared to play fairly.

All surfaces, turf and dirt, played fairly.

The Main Track played fairly, as did the Outer Turf. It's possible the inside was an advantage on the Inner Turf though not significant if any bias at all.

There were a couple of very brief showers that did not affect the Main Track. All the surfaces, turf and dirt, continued to play fairly. The turf courses were very much on the Good side of Firm.

All surfaces, turf and dirt, appeared to play fairly. It does seem like both turf courses were closer to Good than Firm. The rails were moved to zero on the Inner and 24 feet on the Outer.

Despite the changing conditions, all courses, turf and dirt, likely played fairly.

All surfaces, turf and dirt, played fairly.

The rail was good on the Main Track but, overall, the track played fairly. Same for the turf courses, where horses ran well that saved ground, but likely the courses were at least close to fair.

While much of the best running was done off the rail on the Main Track, the second race was won in front and on the inside, so likely the track played fair. The rails were at zero on the Outer Turf and 27 feet on the Inner. We saw closers fare well in the two races on the Inner, but hard to say there was a bias. The rail may have been an advantage on the Outer Turf.

All surfaces, turf and dirt, played fairly.

All corses, turf and dirt, played fairly

All courses, turf and dirt, played fairly.

The Main Track played fairly, as did the Inner Turf ( rails at 9 feet ). The rails were down to zero on the Outer Turf and there may have been a slight advantage to the rail but it's far from clear.

The Main Track played fairly, as did the turf courses in all likelihood.

There is an argument the rail was an advantage. Far from clear but worth following. The turf courses played fairly.

All courses, turf and dirt, played fairly. The rails were at 9 feet on the Inner Turf and 36 on the Outer.

All surfaces, turf and dirt, played fairly

Speed did well on the Main Track in some circumstances, but likely overall the course played fairly. The rails were still at 24 feet on the Outer but were down to zero on the Inner Turf. Both courses appeared to play fairly.

All courses, turf and dirt, played fairly

The rail was good on the Main Track, and forward horses may have had an edge, though there did not appear to be a strong bias. The rails were at 24 feet on the Outer Turf and 27 feet on the Inner. The courses were listed as Firm but were likely closer to Good, with the Outer having a little more give than the Inner. The courses played fairly.

There is some evidence the rail and speed were an advantage on the Main Track, but with two races playing fairly, it's unlikely there was any significant bias. The turf courses played fairly. After some showers in the morning there was some give to the courses.

The Main Track played fairly, as did the turf courses, with dynamics playing the biggest role in the outcomes.

The Main Track played fairly. The Inner Turf ( rails at 18 feet ) played fairly. The rails were out 12 feet on the Outer Turf, and while speed won both races ( both sprints ), it was likely situational and not the result of a bias.

The rail was good on the Main Track but overall, the track played fairly, as did the turf courses.

Early in the day, it seemed like the rail continued to be a big advantage on the Main Track, but as the day wore on, it was hard to continue to make that case. Worth following but hard to say the track wasn't at least reasonably fair. The turf courses appeared to play fairly overall.

There was an extreme gold rail on the Main Track, likely skewing the results in those races. Likely both turf tracks played fairly with dynamics, and talent, playing the greatest role in results.

The Main Track played fairly. Speed did well in the three dirt races, but dynamics played the biggest role in the only race not won by a short priced horse. The rails remained at zero on the Outer Turf and went to 9 feet on the Inner. Likely the courses played fairly, with race dynamics playing a role in some of the outcomes.

All surfaces, turf and dirt, appeared to play fairly.

The Main Track played fairly. The rails were at zero for the first time since June on both turf courses. There is an argument the inside was an advantage on the Inner Turf, which is worth following, while the Outer appeared to play fairly.

The rail was good on the Main Track but overall the track played fairly. There was one race on each turf course, with arguably more give on the Inner Turf than the Outer. Hard to determine any trends with just one race per course. Rails are at 36 feet on the Outer and 27 on the Inner.

While much of the best running in the stretch was done off the rail, a number of successful runners were inside in the earlier parts of the races, so it's hard to say there was a path bias. Speed seemed very strong in the first three races but subsequent to that closers did very well. Tough to say there was any noticable bias one way or another.

The rail was good on the Main Track, but no seeming advantage, as the track played fairly...as did the turf courses.

All courses, turf and dirt, played fairly.

The Main Track played fairly. The Inner Turf played fairly as well. The Outer was also likely fair though it's still possible there was some advantage to being inside. 

There were three dirt races and they appeared to play fairly. The rails were at 24 feet on the Outer Turf and 18 on the Inner. Saving ground appeared to be beneficial on both courses. Not sure there was a bias but worth following.

All surfaces, turf and dirt, played fairly.

The rail was good, and speed did well, on the Main Track but given the results it's more than likely the track played at least reasonably fairly. The Turf courses played fairly as well.

The rail, and speed, were good on the Main Track, but there is not a lot of evidence that it was a strong bias whatsoever. Saving ground may have helped on both turf courses, but likely the courses were closer to fair than anything.

While speed, and the inside, played well on the Main Track, overall the track seemed to play fairly. The same could be said about the turf courses, which overall also seemed to play fairly. The rails were at 9 feet on the Inner and 12 on the Outer.

The rail was good on the Main Track, but not the seeming advantage from the prior day, with race dynamics playing the biggest role in the results. The Inner Turf played fairly while all three races on the Outer Turf were won wire to wire on the inside. Not a clear bias but worth following.

The rail was very good on the Main Track, which helped speed, but the rail may have been the deciding factor. The turf courses played fairly.

Arguably, inside speed was an advantage on the Main Track. Worth following. The turf courses played fairly.

The Main Track played fairly. The rails were out 24 feet on the Outer Turf and 9 on the Inner and arguably they played fairly, though speed did well on the Outer, whether there was a bias is another question.

The Main Track played fairly. The rail was still an advantage on the turf courses, though it's questionable how significant, particularly on the Inner Turf.

The Main Track played fairly. The rail continues to be an advantage on the Outer Turf, while the Inner Turf played a bit more fairly, but saving ground was still an advantage.

The Main Track played fairly. The rail was a clear advantage on the Outer Turf course, and likely an advantage on the Inner Turf as well.

The Main Track was producing very quick times. Speed did well, and likely the track was at least tilted in that direction. The rails were at zero on the Inner Turf, and the inside appeared to be a significant edge. The Outer Turf rails were moved to 12 feet, and while inside runners did well, it likely wasn’t as strong a bias as the Inner Turf, but still might be worth following.

The track played fairly. There was a good mix of speed and closers racing effectively, and while a lot of the best running was done off the rail, we saw horses race effectively at least close to the rail, around the two path.

Speed did well on the Main Track, but with mostly logical results and some deep closers racing effectively, it's not clear there was a strong bias. Probably closer to fair with a slight speed edge. Most of the best running was done well off the rail, but some ran well at least close to the inside.

There is a reasonable argument inside speed was an advantage on the Main Track. Worth following. The rail was an advantage on the Outer Turf while the Inner Turf played fairly.

There were four races on the Main Track. Forwardly placed horses did well but it's questionable that there was any strong bias. The rails were at zero on the Outer turf, and logical horses did well in the three races, but there is an argument the rail was an advantage. The rails were at 27 feet on the Inner, and the one race played fairly.

The rail was good on the Main Track, and possibly somewhat of an advantage, though it's far from clear. Might be worth following. The rail was good on the Outer Turf, also not clear it was a major advantage, while the Inner Turf played fairly.

All courses, turf and dirt, played fairly.

The Main Track played fairly. It's possible the rail was a bit of an advantage early in the day, but given the entire day, the track was fair. The rails were at 18 feet on the Inner Turf and 12 on the Outer. There was more give on the Inner. Both courses likely played fairly but the rail was good on the Outer, though hard to say a clear advantage. Might be worth following.

The rail was good, though not a clear advantage, as the track played fairly with relatively quick final times.

All courses, turf and dirt, played fairly.

All courses, Turf and Dirt, played fairly. The rails were out 9 feet on the Inner and 36 on the Outer. The Outer was close to Firm while there was more give on the Inner Turf.

Forward horses dominated, and the rail was good but not an advantage, but hard to say there was a strong bias. Most results were fairly logical.

The rail was very good on the Main Track. How much of an advantage is debatable, but it's worth following. The turf courses were listed as Good, but were on the Firm side of Good, and they appeared to play fairly.

Speed and forwardly placed horses continue to have an edge on the Main Track, though we did see closers fare a bit better than they have the past few racing days. There was one race on each turf course and they continue to play fairly.

Speed seems to have been at least somewhat of an advantage, how significant is hard to tell with mostly logical results.

There was an extreme speed bias on the Main Track. The rail was good but it appeared to be more about speed as little to no meaningful ground was made up all day. The rails were at 27 feet on the Inner Turf and 24 on the Outer. With one race on each course, and the races playing out fairly, it's hard to say there was any bias.

There were six races on the Main Track and inside speed was dominant, except for the only two turn race, which was won by the heavy favorite. Even after the rain, and change in track condition, this situation arguably continued, though those results were extremely logical. The real rain came after the turf races were over and all four appeared to play fairly.

While the rail was good, and possibly an advantage, it was more a strong speed bias on the Main Track than anything else. The turf courses appeared to play fairly.

The Main Track played fairly as did the turf courses.

The Main Track played fairly. The rails were out to 12 feet on the Outer Turf and 18 feet on the Inner Turf. Hard to say there was a bias with only one race on each course and logical results.

Speed was a big advantage on the Main Track. It's possible the rail was also an advantage but it may have been more about being forward. There was one race on each Turf course. While the courses were labeled Good, the Outer Turf was likely firm with the Inner having more give. Both races appeared to be run fairly.

There was some moisture in the track as the day wore on, but how much is debatable, as sealed tracks often give that appearance. There is a reasonable argument that speed was an advantage, as while we saw some outside closers do OK, we saw more instances where speed seemed to help quite a bit. One race on the Turf, listed as Good, and it seemed to be run fairly.

Inside speed did well on the Main Track. Hard to say it was a bias, as others closed and/or ran well outside, but might be worth following. Once again, with only one race on each turf course, hard to say if there were any biases. Likely the courses played fairly.

The Main Track played fairly. There was one turf race on each course, rails at zero, and hard to say there was any bias. Maybe the rail was an edge on the Outer but hard to really know.

The rail was good on the Main Track. Hard to be sure it was an advantage as some outside runners did well and the results were fairly logical, with the only longshot winner racing off the rail. Back on the turf, with the rails set at zero on both courses. With one race on each course, it's hard to say there were any biases, but outside movers did fine on the Inner, while it's possible the rail was an advantage on the Outer Turf.

Another day where the rail was good but not a noticeable advantage as the track played fairly.

The track played fairly.

The track played fairly though the rail may have been at least a slight edge.

While there were races where inside speed did well, it's hard to say it was an advantage, as overall the track played fairly.

Speed did well, but we saw enough horses close effectively to suggest the track was relatively fair. There is an argument the rail was an advantage, as a lot of the best running was done by horses that spent at least some time inside. Worth following.

The rail was good, though no apparent advantage, as the track played fairly.

The track played fairly overall, but there is an argument the rail was at least a slight advantage. Could be worth following

Despite the first wet track in over a month, the track appeared to play fairly, and the rail was good. Mix of running styles were effective.

While the rail was good, though no discernable advantage, and speed did well in some races, overall the track played fairly with a mix of successful running styles.

The track played fairly.

There is a viable argument that the rail was good, and speed did well, but how much of an advantage is very debatable. Worth following. The track was also playing more quickly than in recent weeks.

The rail was good but the track played fairly.

The track played fairly with a mix of effective running styles.

The track played fairly.

The rail was good, but no advantage, as the track played fairly.

While the results were very logical, there is an argument that the rail was a bit of an advantage, though for the most part the track was fair. Some food for thought.

The track played fairly.

Similar to 3/14, the rail was good, but not a real advantage, as the track played fairly.

The rail was good, but no clear advantage, as the track played fairly.

The rail was good but the track played fairly.

The track played fairly.

The track played fairly.

The track played fairly.

The track played fairly with a fair mix of speed and closers.

The rail was definitely an advantage. How extreme is a little hard to tell, as many runners drifted in the stretch. We saw some effective closing but saving ground was an advantage.

While the rail was good, it’s not clear it was a significant advantage, and ultimately the track played fairly.

While there were a couple races where outside runners did well, for the most part the rail continued to be a significant advantage. Once again, worth following.

The rail was very good, and likely a significant advantage. There were some races that didn't play this way, but they were likely the result of paces that collapsed and forward horses that weren't particularly competitive. Most effective closers saved ground for a portion of the race. Worth following closely.

It’s hard to argue that the rail and speed were an advantage. Not insurmountable, but at the very least an edge. Worth following.

The track appeared to have a significant outside flow. A couple of winners later ran towards the rail, but there still is an argument you were best staying off the inside. Worth following closely.

Arguably, most of the effective running was done well off the rail. Most results, however, were pretty logical. Worth following, as there may have been a bit of an outside flow, but it's far from clear.

Horses ran well inside, both on the lead and closing, as well as much of the effective running done well off the rail. Nothing to indicate the track wasn't fair overall, though it's possible there was some advantage to being forward.

After overnight snow and then rain, into the morning, the track was muddy and sealed. While a lot of the best running was done outside, we saw runners prove successful that showed speed on the inside, though they tended to drift off the rail in the stretch. Hard to say there was any bias.

A reasonable case could be made that speed was a distinct advantage. Not completely clear, as some may be related to pace, but it's at least worth considering.

The track played fairly with a mix of running styles, and a lot of short prices, proving successful.

There were times the rail looked like a big advantage, as well as speed, but there were races that fell apart and outside runners dominated. Dynamics, and talent, played the biggest role as ultimately, the track was fair.

The track played fairly.

The rail was good, though likely not a big advantage, as overall the track played fairly.

The track played fairly.

The track played fairly.

Worth considering that inside speed was an advantage though we saw some closers run effectively outside. Worth following.

The track played fairly with a mix of speed and closers running effectively.

Speed did very well throughout the day, save the 5th race, but with short prices dominating the card, it's hard to say there was a strong bias, especially with one outlier race.

The rail was good, and may have been a slight advantage, but overall the track played fairly.

Track was fair. Seemed like outside closers did well, especially early, but enough inside speed ran well to suggest there was no bias.

There was an extreme speed bias. Very little effective running was done from behind, save the 7th race. While the rail was good, and probably an advantage, it was speed that held up.

The rail was good but the track played fairly.

There were races where it looked like you were better off outside, but others where inside speed did well. Speed did well, but there were closers that ran their races. Seems like race dynamics played the biggest role, as they often do, and overall, we had a fair track.

Another day when a lot of the best running was done outside but enough horses ran well towards the inside to suggest the track was fair.

While a lot of the best running was done outside, horses ran well inside too, suggesting the track was fair.

The rail was definitely a good place to be, and a likely advantage, but we saw enough horse run effectively outside to suggest it wasn’t a strong bias. Still, worth following.

The track played fairly.

Another day where the riders avoided the rail, and it was reasonable to consider the rail to be off, but the 8th and 9th races refuted that, with horses running well on the rail. Likely a fair track.

Like many recent days, much of the best running was done off the rail, but horses ran well enough inside to suggest the track was fair. It seems, more often than not, for whatever reason a lot of riders stay away from the inside, which does not necessarily mean the rail is bad.

The track played fairly.

The track played fairly. The rail was good but not an obvious advantage.
