The draw
Where the winners were drawn in fields of 8 or more over the last 5 years: each figure is the share of the winners from that third of the stalls, with the share of the runners in brackets. A part of the draw winning well above or below its share is shaded, from 40 races.
Does it pay? The second line, shown from 40 races and 200 runners with a Betfair SP, is A/E and the return from backing every runner at Betfair SP after 2% commission. A/E is the winners divided by the winners their Betfair SPs expected. 1.00 means the market had it right. Above 1 they won more often than their prices said; below 1, less often. A bias that wins often but has an A/E near 1 is already in the price, so backing it blind does not pay. A few big-priced winners can swing one figure a long way: look for the same story across several trips.
| Trip | Races | Low draw | Middle | High draw |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6f | 61 | 43% (35%) A/E 1.08 · +45% | 26% (33%) A/E 0.80 · -27% | 31% (31%) A/E 1.12 · +6% |
| 7f | 49 | 39% (35%) A/E 0.94 · -38% | 43% (34%) A/E 1.29 · 0% | 18% (31%) A/E 0.72 · -45% |
| 1m 2f | 21 | 38% (36%) | 38% (33%) | 24% (31%) |
