What the pattern suggests

There is a definite bias favouring low-drawn runners over five furlongs at Redcar. The bias seems to be greater in small fields, for reasons that aren't entirely clear.

How to read the chart

Each mark represents a winning stall number plotted against the total number of runners. This reveals whether winners repeatedly cluster towards the low, middle or high side.

How to use the bias

  • Pace: identify where the likely early leaders are drawn and which runners can secure a good position.
  • Going: consider whether the inside or outside is riding faster on the day.
  • Field size: draw effects are often more meaningful when runners are crowded into larger fields.
  • Recent evidence: rail movements, watering and weather can alter the effective bias.

Conclusion

A definite bias favouring low drawn runners. The bias seems to be greater in small fields for some reason.
