The groups differ in field-size exposure and can contain different classes, ages and track conditions.

Stored race-level going only, without substituting a meeting's headline rating. These are scenario subsets of the same sample, not additional races. Rows without a stored race rating are unclassified; subsets smaller than 30 runners are omitted.

King Charles III Stakes TrackBro insights

Win rate is wins divided by starters, not the share of all race winners. Every first-place runner counts as a full win, including dead heats. Missing barriers: 0. No runner-level records are published in this graph.

Actual versus Expected is shown only for the app-eligible subset: complete confirmed fields, usable SP for every starter and a total implied probability between 1.00 and 1.50. Expected wins are race-normalised before grouping; eligible sample size can differ from the barrier chart.
