Draw bias
Straight course (5/6f) – usually an advantage to high draws; strengthened when stalls are placed high. High draw bias seems to strengthen on good to soft or softer. Low draws can hold their own especially in bigger fields.
Round course – slight advantage to low draws at 1mile, especially on good ground or firmer. Over 7f low draws do not hold a strong advantage despite being drawn close to the inside rail.
Pace bias
5f – clear advantage to front runners / prominent racers;
6f – no real advantage; decent sized fields see hold up horses becoming more competitive;
7f – clear advantage to prominent racers.
1m – advantage to prominent racers.
1m1f / 1m2f – front runners struggle to last home at both distances.
1m2f192yds or more - front runners have a poor record at all longer distances.
