How to use this
If a distance shows a strong high- or low-draw edge, it's a genuine factor to weigh — a well-drawn horse gets a head start, a badly-drawn one needs to be good enough to overcome it. Our model already bakes draw into every Down Royal selection, so you don't have to: see today's Down Royal tips, or the full Down Royal form guide.

This isn't a pundit's hunch. It's every Down Royal race in our database, settled from official results, recomputed automatically. The same engine that measures this draw bias scores every runner at Down Royal each morning — logged before the off, win or lose, on our public track record.
