November 10th Meeting - Trendsetters Guide (1998-2007)


Previous race trends can often help provide a shortlist of potential
winners in the current year's races - hopefully these brief pointers
will assist Racegoers at Carlisle today. The figure in brackets after
the race details is the favourite's strike rate for the race. Due to
this
Being an all chase card in 2008 there are only four races with past
trends today:

since 2001. 6yo have best record with 4/6 wins with all winners aged

(1.55) 2M 5F Graduation Chase (n/a): New race in 2006. Only two
winners to date both of which last raced at the Aintree Festival in
April. Both were well supported with SP's of 11/4 or shorter.
(2.55) 2M 4F H'cap Chase (10%): A poor race for favourites although
