Sprinters on the Rail – Should You Back Horses Drawn Low in Short Races?

Stalls were first introduced in the United Kingdom in 1965 for Flat races. For decades, stall #1 was always furthest to the left from a jockey’s perspective.

Draw Bias at Goodwood

Of all the major festivals on the UK racing calendar, it is suggested that Glorious Goodwood has arguably the most extensive level of draw bias. It is something that has been spoken about for years.
