Freebie is Wizard Magic report and with results summary for 12,014 races
To provide an insight into the significance of the information in the daily Wizard Magic report here are some stats covering the period since the Magic report was introduced, 14 September 2024.

For comparison purposes, the base figure, as always, is the Wizard WRat 100 pointer result. During the period under review there were 12,014 WRat 100 pointers included in the Magic reports. These runners delivered a 27.9% win strike rate.
With Magic, you can overlay other factors on the WRat 100, and potentially improve this strike rate.
For example, in the 2,824 races where the WRat 100 is shown as having firmed by 3% or more overnight and/or on race-morning, the strike rate improves to 36.9%
In the 584 races where the WRat 100 is shown as having firmed by 3% or more overnight and/or on race-morning, AND is flagged (F) as a Filter qualifier, the strike rate improves to 42.1%
In the 566 races where the WRat 100 is shown as having firmed by 3% or more overnight and/or on race-morning, AND is flagged (N) as a No-Negatives qualifier, the strike rate improves to 35.0%
In the 814 races where the WRat 100 is shown as having firmed by 3% or more overnight and/or on race-morning, AND is flagged (FN) as both a Filter qualifier and a No-Negatives qualifier, the strike rate improves to 38.6%
In the 2,020 races where the WRat 100 is shown as being the biggest overnight and/or on race-morning firmer the strike rate improves to 39.9%
Hopefully, these stats will help you assess the significance of the information to be found in the daily Wizard Magic reports.

We publish these full results daily so that subscribers can see the results of the Wizard's ratings options, and Report-content, and thereby formulate a selecting and betting strategy that suits them individually. The Wizard ratings should not be seen as "tips", rather as objective assessments that can be used to inform one's own judgement as to the relative chances of the runners in a race.

The dated columns show the overall results for last week and the last four weeks. The 2023-2024 column shows the WRat results for the full 2023-2024 racing season. This results summary is colour coded so that it is easier for readers to track the relative performance of the Top Rated (blue) and Top-Two Rated (green) ratings options on a daily, and longer term, basis. The best overall qualifier (yellow) is also highlighted.
