What do the “Profit Line” odds under the red arrow represent?
Profit Line odds represent each horse’s estimated probability of winning based on a rigorous computer study encompassing thousands of races. Profit Line odds incorporate numerous handicapping factors (speed, class, pace, form, weight, distance, surface, trainer, jockey, pedigree, recency, etc.). Profit Line odds are provided for all North American thoroughbred races (not available for harness and foreign races). There are countless ways to use Profit Line to help you make winning bets. The horse with the lowest Profit Line odds is deemed to be the most likely winner according to Profit Line. Another approach is to look for Profit Line “overlays” (noted in RED). Whenever the current odds of a horse is greater than (or equal to) the Profit Line odds, the Profit Line odds are displayed in RED. Profit Line deems these “overlays” because the current odds are greater than (or equal to) to the horse’s estimated fair chances of winning.
