Racing Alpha v1.0 card returns +3.00pt on 2026-06-18

A profitable day despite a 40% strike rate

Racing Alpha's v1.0 AI card for 18 June delivered a solid +3.00pt profit from five settled bets, even though only two of those selections found the winner's enclosure. The model covered 49 races across seven meetings on Wednesday, but as always we publish the full card rather than a single tip — and the numbers speak for themselves.

The winners that did the damage

Town Queen (3.00 advised) justified favouritism in what looked a winnable contest. The profit on that single bet was +2.00pt, setting the tone for the day.

Star Of Mali (5.00 advised) was the headline act, landing at a bigger price and contributing a handy +4.00pt to the bottom line. That pair alone generated +6.00pt gross profit.

The three that didn't fire

Transparency is central to how we operate, so here's the other side: Lady Kodiac (8.40) failed to deliver, Startling (11.50) couldn't get competitive, and Spirit Dreamer (3.90) also missed the frame. That's three losers at a combined -3.00pt, which neatly balances the winners to produce the final +3.00pt profit.

None of those defeats were surprising in isolation — horses lose, that's the game. The point is that our published performance ledger allows you to see every result, good and bad. No cherry-picking, no hiding.

Looking ahead

Thursday's racing offers a fresh slate, and the v1.0 card is already assessing the day's action across Southwell, Yarmouth, Leopardstown, Ascot, Lingfield, and Ripon again. We'll have full ratings and selections for every race the model covers — because the aim isn't to point you at one horse, but to give you the complete picture. Check the today's card for the latest.

The model isn't infallible — no system is — but days like Wednesday show that a disciplined, data-driven approach can turn a modest strike rate into consistent profit. We'll keep publishing every result, and let the numbers do the talking.
