Gowran Park Draw Bias

✅ With an LSP of +96.57, the most successful stall at Gowran Park is stall 1 when backing runners over a trip of 1m1½f over the last five years.

❌ With an LSP of -87.04, the most unsuccessful stall at Gowran Park is stall 3 when backing runners over a trip of 1m over the last five years.

Here we have the draw bias for Gowran Park taken into consideration in races with ten or more runners. We will break down the figures by race trips. Draws can be much more important in shorter trips, where runners do not have time to find their position during the race, meaning the draw is probably more important than in races over longer distances.

  • Sprints (5f to 7½f)
  • Mile (1m to 1m1½f)
  • Middle Distance (1m2f to 1m5½f)

The following table shows a breakdown of a group of trips and shows how each position of the draw does, for example, in a twelve-runner race would be Low (Stalls 1-4), Mid (Stalls 5-8) and High (Stalls 9-12). The positions will always be the lowest stall number to the highest.
