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.

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.
