Last Start Position
 

Hi All,

I was wondering if I could call on a favour from someone to let me know last start finishes for winners for the past two years. For example where did the horse finish last start prior to winning this race.

This was a stat that I kept up until two years ago, but stopped and now want to see if I should be served a good dose of humble pie...

From two years ago the stat showed nearly 67% of winners had placed 1 to 5 last start with 32% of winners having placed 1 or 2 last start.

Any help for an old forumite is appreciated.


Cheers,
Luckyboy

Wunfluova,

Many thanks. It would appear the position from two years ago is still apparent (or near enough). I assume the data relates to S/M/B/A metropolitan racing?

Luckyboy, that was for the whole box and dice. BSMA metro reads a little different.

1	25.5%
2	44.4%
3	57.3%
4	68.8%
5	76.4%
6	82.1%
7	87.3%
8	91.1%
9	94.1%
10	96.2%
11	97.7%
12	98.5%
13	99.2%
14	99.7%
15	99.8%

Wunfluova,

Terrific help. As I thought (suspected) the stats have improved for S/M/B/A. Time to review my method...
