Woodbine Horserace Analysis

Smarter Betting With Neural Networks

Woodbine Racetrack is a long-standing institution for horse racing in Toronto, Ontario. Data on 4 years worth of its horse races are available on Kaggle, and in order to learn about neural networks, we attempted to use it to build a model that could predict the winner of a horse race.

After all, betting on a horse race can be intimating - and why are we studying AI if not to see if we can use technology to help us with problems like this?
