What does the AI Score show for Curragh runners?

Each runner racing at Curragh gets a 0–100 score from our flagship model, which ranks its chance in the race from well over a hundred inputs, among them ratings, recent form, class, course, distance and going records, the draw, early pace, and trainer and jockey form. The runner's own price is not an input to the model. After the model has scored the field, the morning price is used to rein in long-priced runners, and live price moves are never used.
