March 23-26 MC Algorithm Results from Oaklawn Park

To sum up this week of picks at Oaklawn Park, the $2 win strategy on the Monte Carlo program's top picks was +$47.00 for the weekend of racing (37 races). Over the 24 race dates of the "What If" game, the strategy is +$124.60 (221 races). I was hoping the weekend would push me one way or the other on the exacta box strategy. It didn't because the weekend was positive (+$46.70 over 37 races) while overall the "What If" game is now -$134.80 over that same 221 races. I will track this strategy until the end of the season at Oaklawn before deciding whether to accept/reject this approach with the predictions from the MC algorithm. In any case, it was great Spring weekend of racing in Hot Springs. Below are the results from the weekend.

March 16-19 MC Algorithm Results from Oaklawn Park

To sum up this week of picks at Oaklawn Park, the $2 win strategy on the Monte Carlo program's top picks was +$24.20 for the weekend of racing (38 races). Over the 20 race dates of the "What If" game, the strategy is +$77.60 (184 races). However, the exacta box strategy that looked so promising at one point in that "What If" game is now -$181.50 over that same 184 races. I will keep tracking this strategy because I cannot decide which streak in the process is more indicative of the predictive power of the MC algorithm. Another week or two should give that data. In any case, it was great Spring weekend of racing in Hot Springs. Below are the results from the weekend.
