Races settled: 20 of 24 — two $2 win picks per race, one for each of the two most likely pace scenarios.
21 race(s) filed one pick only — the second scenario fell below the likelihood floor (v2.2); the single leg counts with the most likely scenario picks.
Most likely scenario picks: 20 settled · 7 winners · $40 win bets → $30.66 · ROI -23.3%
Second scenario picks: 3 settled · 1 winners · $6 win bets → $5.60 · ROI -6.7%
Winner was one of the pair: 7 of 20 races.
Counter-move legs (v2.9 §16): 7 settled · 2 winners · $14 win bets → $18.40 · ROI +31.4% — counted in the scorecard above.
Pace-price legs (v3.0 §19): 4 settled · 2 winners · $8 win bets → $20.00 · ROI +150.0% — counted in the scorecard above.
Pace-price tags (memo — these legs are counted in their pair/counter lines above, not added again): 8 legs · 2 winners · $16 win bets → $13.60 · ROI -15.0%
In the money: 21 of 34 pick legs (62%) finished 1st, 2nd or 3rd.
The 12 winners paid an average of $6.22 on a $2 win ticket.
Across the board: $2 win-place-show on every pick — $138 → $110.88 · ROI -19.7%.
Scratches: 3 pick(s) were scratched in the official chart. Those legs settle on the filed backup shown under each pick — the pick that would have been filed had the scratches been known — and the scorecard above counts them.
As filed (before scratches): 31 settled · 11 winners · $62 win bets → $69.06 · ROI +11.4%

IF THE PACE STAYS HONEST (55%)
#11 Sound of Victory ★ 7/2 PACE-PRICESCRATCHED — REFUND
Trainer: Armando Hernandez · Jockey: Frank Reyes
Sound of Victory is second on the blended late graph (90) at the field's top weight of 132 lb for Armando Hernandez/Frank Reyes, off a win and a good last race; under an honest pace his finish is the strongest in the field after the favorite's. Filed as slot 1 by the v2.9 section 16 counter-move: this horse is the frozen formula's top horse in a marked race with no strong favorite, replacing the standing-discipline slot 1
The price: 7/2 second choice behind the 3/1 favorite Governing Party — priced just off the favorite despite the top weight and a win last out; the sheet rates him the stronger finisher of the two at the longer price
IF THE PACE IS CONTROLLED (45%)
#10 Governing Party 3/1🏆 WIN
Trainer: Dennis Higgins · Jockey: Johanis Aranguren
Governing Party leads both graphs (early 96, blended late 100) for Dennis Higgins/Johanis Aranguren — a profile edge (leads both graphs) — off a win; if the pace is controlled, he is the horse doing the controlling and his late figure says he finishes the job
The price: 3/1 favorite, a half-step clear of Sound of Victory at 7/2 — priced shortest on both graphs and the win last out; the sheet agrees with the number, so the value case sits in the other slot

#10 Rank Randy ★ 5/2 PACE-PRICEOUT
Trainer: Randy L Klopp · Jockey: Fernando De La Cruz
Won by #9 Thousands of Hopes — paid $14.80
Rank Randy owns the field's best early figure (96) as the controlling E for Randy L Klopp/Fernando De La Cruz, with the second-best blended late figure (54) and 124 lb; if the pace is controlled he is the one controlling it, off a good last race (2/10). Filed as slot 1 by the v2.9 section 16 counter-move: this horse is the frozen formula's top horse in a marked race with no strong favorite, replacing the standing-discipline slot 1
The price: 5/2 second choice behind the 2/1 favorite El Payasito — priced as the speed danger rather than the finisher; the sheet's late graph belongs to the favorite, so this slot leans on his early control being the race
IF THE PACE STAYS HONEST (45%)
#8 El Payasito 2/1OUT
Trainer: Genaro Garcia · Jockey: Amir Mendoza
Won by #9 Thousands of Hopes — paid $14.80
El Payasito leads the blended late graph (77) by a clear margin of 23 and is top-2 on both graphs (early 88) for Genaro Garcia/Amir Mendoza — a profile edge — off a win; under an honest pace his finish is the separator in this allowance sprint
The price: 2/1 favorite, clear of Rank Randy at 5/2 — priced shortest on the win and the late graph; the sheet backs the number, and the caution on him is the drop in class the crowd may be paying for twice

#4 Electa 1/1🏆 WIN
Trainer: David Wolochuk · Jockey: Chelsey Keiser
Electa leads both graphs (early 90, blended late 85) with a clear-margin late lead of 19 for David Wolochuk/Chelsey Keiser — a profile edge (leads both graphs) — off a win; as the field's only true E with the best early figure she owns the controlled pace the price floor asks for, and her late figure finishes it
The price: Evens favorite, well clear of Bend My Ear at 5/2 — priced as the standout on the win and both graphs; the sheet agrees with the line's read at every point, so the short price is the honest one
IF THE PACE STAYS HONEST (35%)
#2 Bend My Ear ★ 5/2 PACE-PRICE3RD · SHOW
Trainer: David Wolochuk · Jockey: Mauro Cedillo
Bend My Ear is second on the blended late graph (66) with a raw late figure and the field's top weight of 127 lb for David Wolochuk/Mauro Cedillo, dropping in class off a good last race; if Suzie Q's Sister hooks Electa early, this is the stalker the honest pace sets up
The price: 5/2 second choice behind the even-money favorite Electa — priced on the class drop and the top weight; the caution is that the crowd overpays for the obvious drop, so the number is fair rather than generous

★ = the pick was not the morning-line favorite.
The HOT badge marks the race shape our settled record wins most — controlled pace on top, a clear late-graph leader, no synthetic surface.
PEND — the pick was scratched in the official chart and no filed backup ran, so the play is a refund. It is not a result still missing.
When a pick is scratched and a filed backup ran, the leg settles on that backup — the pick that would have been filed had the scratches been known — and counts in the scorecard.
Counter-move legs (v2.9 §16) are extra $2 win legs filed in races with no strong favorite; they count in the scorecard and carry no scratch backup — a scratched counter leg is a refund.
Pace-price legs (v3.0 §19) are the race's headline pace pick at 2/1–7/2; standalone legs count in the scorecard and carry no scratch backup — a scratched pace-price leg is a refund. A PACE-PRICE tag on a pair or counter leg marks the same horse and is reported as a memo line only, never counted twice.
Payouts are the official $2 payoffs. Full race-by-race results with WIN/PLACE/SHOW banners: see the Results Archive.
