Most handicappers glance at TimeformUS figures the way casual fans glance at odds — they see numbers but miss the story.The truth is, TimeformUS doesn’t just measure how fast a horse ran. It measures how that speed was distributed, how the track played, and what that performance really meant in context.
After handicapping over 200,000 races, I’ve learned that understanding how and why these numbers move is what separates a good selection from a great one — and it’s exactly what my AI is designed to exploit.
🏁 The Building Blocks: Early, Late, and Race Figures
Every horse has three key TimeformUS measurements:
- Early Pace Figure: How fast the horse ran to the first call.This number identifies pure speed — the horse that wants to grab the lead and dare others to catch him.
- Late Pace Figure: The finishing energy — how much run the horse had left late.This reveals the closers, the ones who can pounce when the speed collapses.
- Race Figure: The overall performance number, adjusted for pace and track variant (more on that next).It’s the most complete view of how good that effort actually was.
Unlike Beyer Figures — which treat every final time the same way — TimeformUS builds context into each race.A 98 earned while dueling through blistering early fractions is not the same as a 98 earned in a soft pace.That’s why raw numbers can be deceiving — and why our AI model reads them differently.
🧩 Track Variance: The Hidden Equalizer
The Track Variant is one of the most overlooked components in modern handicapping.It represents how fast or slow the racing surface was playing on that day — and even subtle changes can rewrite how a race looks on paper.
A 1:10 six-furlong time might look average, but if the track was playing two seconds slow, it’s a far stronger performance than most bettors realize.Conversely, a flashy figure on a lightning-fast surface might be inflated.
Example:A horse who posts a 110 Late Pace Figure while closing on a dull rail track often outperforms one who earned a 115 on a fast, bias-assisted strip.That’s why I always remind players — don’t fall in love with the raw number. Adjust for conditions.
Our AI doesn’t just take these adjustments into account — it learns from them, weighting track bias, pace distribution, and speed patterns dynamically across thousands of races.

⚙️ How True Professionals Combine These Numbers
Handicapping with TimeformUS isn’t about picking the fastest number — it’s about finding the most efficient combination of energy use.
Here’s what separates the pros (and our AI model) from the rest:
- A horse with average Early Pace but sharp Late Figures and an improving Track Variant trend often signals an underpriced overlay.
- In a field filled with early burners, the AI shifts weight toward Late Pace performance.
- In paceless races, it favors Early Speed — knowing lone-speed setups win more than they should.
It’s this adaptive logic that produces what our members now call Boom Exactas — those pairings of horses that complement each other perfectly in pace shape and value.
💥 Real-World Proof: The Aqueduct $123.95 Boom Exacta
On Saturday, in Aqueduct’s 10th race, our AI locked onto a 8-1 shot whose Late Pace and Race Figures jumped off the page once adjusted for track variant.That horse paired perfectly with a front-runner who looked ordinary on paper — but whose Early Pace Figure had been hidden by a speed-biased surface the week prior.


The result?A $123.95 Exacta — another Boom for our members.That wasn’t luck. That was pattern recognition, variance adjustment, and machine learning precision doing exactly what we built it to do.
🧩 Why This Matters
Most handicappers try to “read” TimeformUS like a scoreboard.We interpret it like a blueprint.
Every Race Figure, every pace split, every Track Variant line contributes to a deeper map of where the value lies — not in the favorites everyone sees, but in the pairings nobody expects.That’s why we’ve hit double-digit Boom Exactas in just the last 60 days — results most sites would dream of producing even once.
🔹 Final Word
Understanding TimeformUS isn’t about memorizing numbers — it’s about understanding energy, intent, and context.That’s what our AI has mastered, and that’s why it keeps delivering.
