Cheltenham Festival 2022 Welcome Page

Welcome to this year’s Cheltenham Festival significant horse racing stats page. The aim of this blog is to provide readers with statistics and trends for most races and more importantly highlight key significant stats/trends that will help narrow down fields to just a few horses. Some of the races include up to 20 years’ worth of data whilst others, particularly the handicaps 10 years. Last year the sig stats highlighted/shortlisted plenty of the winners and EW horses for the graded races, the stats for the handicap races appeared less powerful however with some tweaks this year I hope to overcome this.  

By no means am I ‘tipping’ horses, just providing information for readers to use as they wish. I will highlight horses I will be backing or have already backed, however. Finally, if anyone has any questions or suggestions, please message me on twitter @SigStatsHorses and feel free to like or retweet.

Key:

Sig stat: In principle, a statistically significant result (usually a difference) is a result that’s not attributed to chance. A statistically significant difference is simply one where the measurement system (including sample size, measurement scale, etc.) was capable of detecting a difference (with a defined level of reliability).

Sig correlation: Correlation is a statistic that measures the degree to which two variables move in relation to each other.
