Racecourse record
Ascot racing stats
223 races at Ascot over the last twelve months, across 33 race days. Here is how the track actually behaves - starting with the question everyone asks.
Do favourites win at Ascot?
Favourites won 32% of their 236 runs here in the last twelve months (76 winners).
Joint favourites are counted. Across all UK and Irish racing the figure sits around a third, so anything well below that marks Ascot out as a track where the market gets caught out more often than usual.
How our own picks do here
21% of our 223 settled picks at Ascot won, and 42% placed.
Every pick is published in advance and settled at Betfair starting prices, losers included. Some tracks suit the model better than others and we publish both. Past results never guarantee future ones.
