Draw bias (aw)
Straight course (5f) – lows to middle draws have the edge. Very high draw draws tend to find it tough.
Round course – Low numbers (stall 1 worst) can be disadvantaged, worth taking on stall 1 over most trips, harrowing can produce draw biases on particular days.
Draw bias (turf)
6f / 7f – lower draws tend to have the advantage (limited data). Stall 1 has a decent record over both trips but again, limited data, however they are drawn next to the rail so it could be a playable bias that will likely not be overbet.
Pace bias (aw)
5f – clear advantage to front runners / prominent racers; 6f – clear advantage to front runners / prominent racers; 7f – 1m – front runners tend to struggle. Prominent racers that track the pace tend to have the edge. 1m3f or more – no real advantage.
Pace bias (turf)
There are so few turf races at Southwell that there is not enough data to form an opinion. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- NB • - pace data back to 2000 • - trainer data back to 2000 • - draw data back to 2005 (with reference to earlier if necessary)
