Tips From Wetherby Racecourse

Wetherby because of the quality of the runners over jumps gets horses “at it”, you need to be on the ball around this sharp track and up with the pace, or get left behind.

The 3 graded chases run here tend to go towards the head of the market, there has only been 1 double-figure winner of the Charlie Hall Chase (late October/early November) and Towton Novice Chase (late January/early February) in the last 10 years, and only 2 in the Rowland Meyrick Chase (Boxing Day).  

It's early days for the flat course but a check of recent results shows that over sprint distances low numbers 2-3-4-5 seem to be doing well, but not necessarily the inside stall (1). It can pay to be prominent it seems.

The Wetherby betting markets on the flat tend to be accurate remembering that a lot of the participants are local to the track.

Wetherby Draw Bias

The stall with the worst loss at Wetherby in the win market when breaking it down to race trips is stall 5 over a trip of 5½f, backing all runners in this stall over that trip over the past five years would have returned a loss of -20.00.

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

  • Sprints (5f to 7½f)

The following table shows a breakdown over 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 lowest stall number to highest.
