The "Stats" tab provides four categories of handicapping statistics for horse races: Post Position Bias, Track Bias Stats, Run Style Stats, and Success Rates. Post Position Bias offers statistics on winners based on starting positions for the current meet or week. Track Bias Stats analyze the track, distance, and surface, including the percentage of wire-to-wire wins. Run Style Stats categorize winners by their running style, such as Early or Closer. Success Rates focus on today's race type, detailing win percentages and returns on investment for favorites, along with average field size and win payoffs.
