The objective of this analysis is to identify horses via plus or minus scores that are not identifiable in the past performances. Horses whose races are accurately captured in the past performances are not captured here, regardless of how well or poorly they may have raced.
Consider all races without comment as WUSIWUG ā an acronym for What U See (in past performances) Is What U Get. Some races may identify multiple horses that are scored, while other races are clearly defined in the past performances, and no horse is scored. These unscored horses all had clearance in the pivotal part of the stretch, and no uncharted exertion earlier.
*** This week highlighted the value of these analysis articles with an amazing payoff at Yonkers on a horse that had received the highest possible score. See the details below. ***
Scores do not indicate must-bet or must-toss the next time they race as other handicapping factors come into play. But these scores give the bettor a huge edge in what is frequently the most important factor when making betting decisions and many scored horses have been coming in with generous payouts in their next races.
The highest $2 win payout was for VANDALISM who paid $188 for a $2 wager on 12-29 at The Meadowlands. He had been scored with āclear too late with some paceā in his previous start there. (HARNESSLINK.COM article published 12-29) That was the biggest price, but there have been many long prices. There have been a number of cold exactas, and two cold trifectas when three scored horses ended up in the same race.
You cannot assume scored horses will race the following week. Here is the best way to profit from this analysis. On the day you are wagering on races, and see Freehold or Meadowlands in the past performances, click here. Ā This will open up the list of all articles.
For horses that show lines that pique your interest, find the article that analyzes the races for that day, then search for the horse. If the horse has a positive score, you know the horse is better than the pp line shows. Click on other weeks that the horse raced if the most recent race does not complete the story for you. This will give you access to all analysis.
Tracking shippers is not part of this analysis, but out-of-town winners are identified on occasion.

In his previous race, the horse changed barns then received the rare +3 score at Freehold after receiving a magical mystery tour by an amateur. He spotted the field 15 lengths before the start, then spent the last half mile 3-wide, and kept coming in the stretch. Tonight ā George Brennan from the 8-hole and the easiest open length win. He was the first leg of a $315 pick-3, the second leg of a $1,640 pick-4, and the third leg of a $3,941 pick-5. How many column readers benefitted from the +3 score information? The replay of the Freehold race was provided in the previous analysis. Here is the replay of this win, a jogburger with onions.
