The Worcester data that actually repeats
Before you back anything at Worcester, three numbers matter — and they come from 1,428 Worcester races in our settled-results database, not a pundit's hunch.
How often the favourite wins at Worcester
The SP favourite has won 37.6% of races at Worcester across 1,428 races. That is above the ~33% market-wide average — Worcester rewards the form horse more than most tracks, but it still loses two races in three. Blind favourite-backing is not a plan at Worcester.
