How to use the bias

  • Pace: identify where the likely early leaders are drawn and which runners can secure a good position.
  • Going: consider whether the inside or outside is riding faster on the day.
  • Field size: draw effects are often more meaningful when runners are crowded into larger fields.
  • Recent evidence: rail movements, watering and weather can alter the effective bias.

Conclusion

Over this straight mile at Yarmouth they obviously have time to sort themselves out and therefore there is no draw bias.
