The draw bias on the straight track is an embarrassment.
In the two year old races and group sprints class can win out (though even Mission Central stormed home up the rail) but in the ‘supposedly’ competitive handicaps it turns it into at best a 5-10 horse race and in some races a virtual one horse race - Rogue Diplonat, Mezcala, Green Consul and Bacio all drawn highest.
Barely a mention of how pathetic this is in the media.

There's seriously something mentally amiss with the jockeys who decide to tag onto
the middle section when they've had dream draws in 2/3/4/5 - appalling judgement!  Just WTF  |

It helps to narrow a field down somewhat, UP.
I think you’ve got the bronze highway there, Herbie!  |

2 yr old races,class group horses and well handicapers horses can overcome a percieved massive draw bias,the only time Ryan moorew ha been within 6 hore width of the near rail in 4 day has been for one furlong in a race he rode for luck and hoped everyone else went to fast,barca rode 8 of the rail for 6.5 furlong of his race

It's no surprise the media have said nothing. They care nothing about punters, and anything negative is just popped in the ignore tray. The point could be made year after year. Usually the idiot jocks will suddenly start doing the opposite which makes it even worse. Joke is the right word.

I backed Laureate Crown the other day (drawn 16) and I couldn't believe it when Spencer made a special effort to take him far side after seeing what had happened in previous races. Don't jockeys watch races?
