How we handicap Del Mar

Rating Model

Our proprietary model scores every horse entered at Del Mar by projected win probability — independent of the morning line.

Pace Scenarios

We map out the pace shape of every race — who's going to the lead, where the pressure comes from, and which runners benefit from the expected tempo.

Surface & Trip Notes

Del Mar Thoroughbred Club runs on Dirt and Turf. We track bias patterns and trip notes from prior starts to find hidden form.

Value Ratings

Every pick is benchmarked against the morning line. We only flag plays where our probability meaningfully exceeds the market — real overlays, not chalk.
