Today was not our best day at Race-AI, finishing down -5 points overall. While we saw some notable wins, they were overshadowed by a number of disappointing results that failed to meet expectations. Our win strategy managed to achieve an acceptable strike rate of 38%, but it wasn't enough to offset the losses in several races. The place strategy performed reasonably well at 61%, but we had several near misses that could have turned the day around. As always, we remain committed to transparency and learning from every outcome, which will enable us to improve future selections.

What Worked
Today's wins primarily stemmed from consistent performance patterns observed in certain courses such as Curragh and Brighton where horses ran true to expected form based on historical data trends we analyzed thoroughly beforehand; particularly evident was Acclamatic's strong win backed by data indicating solid pacing potential throughout similar past races—this proved true again today!
What Didn't Work
Unfortunately, several high-confidence selections didn’t deliver results reflective of their earlier promising indicators such as those seen with Silk Braid and Cave Bridge who fell prey to unexpected late surges from competitors—even underestimating external factors like weather fluctuations played into their outcomes negatively affecting expected finishes resulting from last minute changes during runs towards finish lines thus revealing gaps needing further evaluation moving forward.
