Racing research & data studies

Built from 11 years of UK & Irish results — rigorous, honest, free to cite.

Most racing "facts" are folklore. These aren't. Each study below is computed from over a million runner records — the real numbers behind the questions punters argue about, with the method shown and the losses included. Use them, share them, cite them.
Do favourites actually win?
A third of the time — and they've lost money to level stakes for over a decade running.

How often does each price actually win?
Odds-on shots win 60%, 20/1-plus just 1.6% — the real strike rate of every price.

What age of horse wins most?
The Flat is a young horse's game (3yo peak); jumps rewards maturity (6yo). The full age curve for both.

Field size & shocks: do big fields cause upsets?
In small fields the favourite usually obliges; in a 17+ runner cavalry charge, 4 in 10 are won by a 10/1+ shot.

Does top weight win handicaps?
Folklore says top weight is a burden. The data says the opposite — it wins more than its share.
