Kempton Park All Weather

Official Kempton Polytrack Details
The track is right handed and has a bend radius of 137m.

The track is 20m wide in the home straight and 16m on the bends designed to accommodate 17 runners in all distances (other than 5f and 6f races where safety factors will be reduced to 14).

The outer track is a ten furlong (2,000m) oval - the track will host 6f, 7f, 1m, 1m 3f, 1m 4f and 2m races.

The inner track is an eight furlong (1,612m) oval - this will allow for 5f and 1m 2f races.

Kempton uses the same Polytrack surface as Lingfield and Wolverhampton.

Kempton Park Draw Bias
5F, 6F
Horses drawn high are nearest the rail, no conclusive data has been released as to the draw bias at Kempton Park, but over 5 and 6 furlongs, I personally prefer to follow horses drawn out wide, ie the highest 5 runners. Howard Hutch seems to agree with my preference somewhat.

7F
In my personal experience, horses drawn wide to middle, ie the highest 5 runners, arguably have an advantage due to the right hand turn into the straight. Little data is available to back up my theory. Once again, Howard Hutch possibly agrees with my general observation.

8F & Above
Little in the way of a draw bias from what I have noticed watching 1mile+ races on the Kempton all-weather surface to date.
