Draw Bias Switched On Right Handed Tracks

From today the stalls numbering system will be reversed for all right handed tracks in Britain, with Leicester this afternoon being the first exponent of the changes.

To bring Britain in line with the rest of the racing world, stall one will be the stall closest to the inside rail. This will affect tracks such as Kempton and Ascot who have a right hand bend. Traditionally these right handed tracks would have stall one furthest away from the inside rail. This will now be reversed with stall one being on the inside.

Observers of draw biases will now have to adjust their thinking. Right handed tracks like Beverley where high numbers used to hold sway, will now find low numbered stalls advantaged.

The good news is that Betting Bias has updated our draw bias analysis to take account of the change; for example the Kempton Draw Bias. Left handed tracks remain unchanged.
