The starting-price favourite; where favourites are joint, the race counts as a favourite win if any of them won. All jumps is shown with at least 60 races here, and each race type with at least 40; a type below that is left off. "All Britain" is the same type of race at every British course over the same 12 months, and for the flat on the same surface.
Southwell Draw Bias
flat races since 17 AprThere is a draw effect here we would rely on. Over 5f to 6f, high draws have the edge: 40.7% of the winners from 33.1% of the runners.
Stalls are split into low, middle and high thirds within each race. Each bar is that third's share of the winners and the tick is its share of the runners, so a bar past its tick is winning more than its share. We only call a bias when the gap is at least 15% of that share and two standard deviations clear of chance.
