Professional sports team aiming to take the big data approach

Job ID: 34139766

Budget: $15 – $25 AUD

We are a professional horse racing group, based in Ireland and Australia. Horses in our care have won races including Group 1's in five countries and amassed large sums of money.

We want to use data and models to compare the strength of different trainers, different horses and racing jurisdictions. Primarily we would like to gather large data and build a search feature for all horses in Australia that would allow us to set certain parameters and provide a shortlist of possible horses we should look at purchasing.

The key is being able to identify undervalued talent in the market, develop them, and then sell them on for profit, gradually building more value into the business and gradually increasing the level of the stable.

If you haven’t seen Moneyball, that’s basically the plot right there - Our ability to find overlooked, undervalued contenders empowers our clients to purchase top talent for less, save time and money but ultimately train more breakout champions from fewer horses.

We look forward to working with you on this venture.
