JACKPOT ROLLS OVER FROM NEWMARKET (WEDS) PRESUMABLY GOING ON TO NEWMARKET (THURS?)

Hi guys. Well having busted, rather unceremoniously from a live tournament in Nottingham, I did the early walk of shame from my hotel room. (Having rather optimistically packed for 5 days)
 
So I  am now back home with my tail between my legs feeling a little deflated, but nothing too damaging.

The good news is that we can do another trial run.

I'm assuming it will be at Newmarket again, although Cheltenham is possible.

If someone knows/can find out, that would be great.

It looks a reasonable card to have a go at, although we wouldn't do it for real as the carry over is too small.

Cheers,

G

P.S. Please post here ASAP if you know for sure where tomorrow's Jackpot is.

    The draw is an interesting factor at Newmarket.

    From my experience in the handicaps runners that are drawn in the centre don't seem to do too great, however the side that is favoured very often depends on a few factors. Namely:

    WHICH COURSE (ROWLEY OR JULY)
    GROUND CONDITION
    WHERE THE STARTING STALLS ARE (THEY CHANGE THIS)
    DISTANCE
    WHICH SIDE GETS THE PACE RIGHT.

    I haven't looked at drawbias.com yet as this is just my experience/thoughts. (THE CURRENT DRAW IS FAR/STAND SIDE, AND THE COURSE IS ROWLEY)

    Looking at today's and yesterday's results, I would conclude the following: (albeit from a small sample size, but it's recent)

    5 FURLONGS: It looks like the inside may be favoured, but only slight.
    6 FURLONGS: Both extremities have done OK, but middle drawn runners have struggled.
    7 FURLONGS: Middle has struggled again. High draw appears to be the best, with the odd low drawn runner doing OK.
    1 MILE:          There appears to be quite a strong bias favouring high drawn runners.

    It may be worth considering the above with you bets/removal selections.

    Cheers,

    G

    In the interest of getting it set up before I start today's poker schedule, we will do a trial run for NEWMARKET.

    As MICKYBLUE said recently, for trial runs, it doesn't necessarily HAVE to be the Jackpot meeting, although it is nice to see the UNITS running on etc.

    I will start working on the spreadsheet now.

    Cheers,

    This is what drawbias.com actually says about the Newmarket Rowley Course:

    "
    Key Characteristics

    The Rowley Mile course is massively wide and due to the amount of racing on it the rails are constantly moved and different parts of it used, so it is difficult to be conclusive about any overall biases which exist. You need to watch the earlier races on the same day. The course is a straight course with a slightly inclined finish so if horses go off to fast in the 5 or 6 furlong races then they don’t get home. "

    (That kind of fits in with my comments above I think)
