About
Our Data
Learn what types of race, runner, rail, barrier, going and weather data TrackBro uses.
Overview
TrackBro uses historical race and runner records to support research into Australian thoroughbred racing. Depending on the available period and track, fields may include meeting date, race distance, race condition, rail position, field size, barrier, finishing position, settling-position classifications, starting price and recorded weather or wind observations.
Data availability and completeness can differ by year, track and variable. A missing value is not equivalent to a negative observation. Some analyses exclude records where the necessary inputs are unavailable. TrackBro aims to make these limits visible rather than present every result as equally certain.
