The Honest Record
How our Harness calls actually performed · 206 settled races
Most tipping sites show you their winners and quietly forget the rest. We do the opposite:
here's every call, scored against the result — including where backing blindly loses money.
We'd rather you trust us than be impressed by us.
-25.0%
Market fav flat ROI
"Market fav" = blindly backing the shortest-priced runner (206 races).
"Our pick" = the runner our model rated #1, where it had rated the race (113 races and growing as more races are rated).

Read it like this: on Dominant favourite races we say back to win, and those win most
often. On Weak favourite and Open races we say don't back the favourite to
win — so the low win rate there is the call working, not failing: we steered you to place or pass.
Model vs market accuracy. Across 1,042 rated runners, our model's
probability error (Brier 0.0792) is
a fraction behind the market's (0.0785). We don't beat the market on raw
prediction — almost nobody does — which is exactly why our calls lean on race structure and
discipline rather than claiming to out-pick the price.
Our pledge. We will never hide a losing run, cherry-pick a hot week, or claim an edge the
numbers don't show. This page updates automatically from real results — good and bad. If a call
type stops working, you'll see it here first.
