Issued under schema SR-PICK-V1

Verifying in your browser…
Hashing the pick's canonical bytes with your device's SHA-256.

This is to certify that the pick recorded below was cryptographically committed to Saturday Racing's transparency ledger before the race ran. The commitment is a SHA-256 leaf hash of the canonical bytes; any subsequent tampering breaks the hash and this certificate turns red. The check runs on the reader's own device — no trust required from us.

Technical appendix — canonical bytes & Merkle proof

The canonical bytes

This is the exact JSON that was hashed. Copy it, run sha256sum on it yourself, and you should get the leaf hash above.

{"attribution":{"pick_source":"story_score","prompt_version":"htw_backfill_v1"},"committed_at":"2026-07-13T21:10:28Z","issuer":"saturday-racing.com","predicted_at":"2026-07-07T08:56:14Z","product":"horses_to_watch","product_lane":"","race":{"course":"Ascot","external_id":"rac_11931530","internal_id":1741,"race_date":"2026-06-17","race_time":"16:20"},"schema":"sr-pick-v1","selection":{"advised_odds":"5/4","confidence_final":"Medium","confidence_raw":"","horse":"Ombudsman","position_claim":"win"}}

The Merkle proof

Each hop is a sibling hash. Your browser walks these from the leaf up to the root, hashing pairs at each step.
