What the pattern suggests
There appears to be a small bias favouring high numbers here, but the bias at Windsor is by no means large. However when the ground is soft there is a golden highway up the far rail which means being drawn high is a big advantage.
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: consider where the likely early leaders are drawn and which runners can obtain a favourable position.
- Going: assess whether one side of the course is riding faster on the day.
- Field size: draw effects can become more important when runners are spread across a larger field.
- Recent evidence: rail movements, watering and weather can change the effective bias.
Conclusion
There appears to be a small bias favouring high numbers here, but the bias at Windsor is by no means large. However when the ground is soft there is a golden highway up the far rail which means being drawn high is a big advantage.
