Default Canterbury Handicapping

There is a blog on the Canterbury website where there is a weekend racing recap that has comments on pace and post biases. There is also a worksheet on trainer win percentages in different months. Well worth checking out.

Anything with Seth Martinez/Mac Robertson WILL BE AN UNDERLAY!!!! But they most likely will be the stickout in the race and most likely will win.
Paul Nolan is Jamie Ness' go to guy,and are usually underlaid also,but sometimes you will get a price if there is a Robertson horse in the race.Bring earplugs to block out the idiot on the roof{Paul Allen}He is annoying,really,and don't bet anything he likes.And remember,Speed rules at CBY.

Thanks to all for some excellent information.

Lemoncrush, I see that there are two grass races, so I'll keep the weather in mind.

Hoof Hearted, I'll give the blog a check in a little while.

Kimmeaster, will pack the ear plugs and keep an eye out for the speed.

If the track comes up sloppy/muddy, will there by any bias? Speed v closers? Rail v Middle?

If it is sloppy or muddy,it is usually the rail,BUT,a lot of them win in the middle too.To determine which,pay attention to the quarter horse races.They have been running these races first in the card,and this will usually help you figure out how the middle of the track is doing.

Good tip. Checked with Equibase and unfortunately, the Quarters are scheduled to be run at the end of the card.
