RaceNet™ Analysis: The AI Engine Behind Race-AI

How our proprietary neural network delivers consistent 79% success rates on lay betting

Published: 15 Sep 20248 min read

At the heart of Race-AI is RaceNet™, our proprietary neural network trained on over 500,000 historical races. Unlike traditional tipsters who rely on gut feeling or basic statistics, RaceNet™ uses advanced machine learning to analyze every aspect of a race in milliseconds.

This article reveals how RaceNet™ works and why it consistently outperforms human experts.

What is RaceNet™?

RaceNet™ is a deep learning neural network specifically designed for horse racing analysis. It combines multiple AI techniques:

Neural Network Core

6-layer deep learning model trained on 500,000+ UK & Irish races from 2015-2025

Feature Extraction

Analyzes 1,000+ data points per race including form, pace, jockey stats, trainer patterns, course history

Probability Modeling

Calculates true win/place probabilities and compares against market odds to find value

Real-time Updates

Continuously learns from each race result, improving accuracy with every day

How RaceNet™ Analyzes Each Race

1Data Collection

RaceNet™ ingests race data from multiple sources: official form, Racing Post, Betfair markets, historical databases. This includes horse form, trainer/jockey statistics, course conditions, weather, and market movements.

2Feature Engineering

The AI creates 1,000+ unique features from raw data:

  • Pace ratings and early/late speed indicators
  • Course-and-distance form (last 3 years)
  • Trainer win rate in similar race conditions
  • Jockey-trainer combinations performance
  • Going preference and surface suitability
  • Class adjustments and race grade difficulty

3Neural Network Processing

Features flow through 6 hidden layers, each identifying complex patterns. The network learns non-linear relationships that humans can't spot - like how a specific trainer performs with 5yo horses on soft ground in handicaps.

4Probability Output

RaceNet™ outputs a win probability for each runner (e.g., 18.5% chance of winning). It compares this to market odds to identify value.

5Lay Selection

When a horse's market price is significantly shorter than its true probability (overvalued), RaceNet™ flags it for laying. Only selections with 75%+ confidence are recommended.

RaceNet™ Advantages Over Traditional Methods

Traditional Tipsters

  • • Analyze 10-20 factors manually
  • • Biased by recent performances
  • • Can't process all historical data
  • • Emotional decisions
  • • Slow to adapt to new patterns
  • • Win rate: 20-30%

RaceNet™ AI

  • • Analyzes 1,000+ factors per race
  • • Weights all data mathematically
  • • Trained on 500,000+ races
  • • Zero emotion, pure statistics
  • • Learns daily from new results
  • • Win rate: 79% (lay betting)

This consistent performance across different market conditions (soft ground, firm ground, flat, jumps, handicaps, graded stakes) proves RaceNet™'s versatility.

Continuous Learning & Improvement

Unlike static tipster systems, RaceNet™ learns from every race. Each evening, the AI retrains on the day's results:

  • Result Integration: Winning/losing selections update the model weights
  • Pattern Detection: New trainer trends, jockey form, seasonal patterns identified
  • Market Adaptation: Learns how bookmaker odds correlate with actual outcomes
  • Accuracy Tuning: Fine-tunes confidence thresholds to maximize profitability

This is why RaceNet™ gets better over time - it's constantly evolving based on real-world results.
