Warwick Racecourse
Warwick Racecourse was a popular dual-purpose course which had racing through the year. Over the jumps the course 1m5f in length and has a fairly short run-in of just over a furlong from the final obstacle.. In 2014, Jockey Club Racecourses, who run Warwick, announced plans for a 17-fixture all-Jumps race programme from 2015 and a vision for the Midlands track to become regarded as one of the UK's leading small Jumps courses within the next five years. The course had formerly staged both Flat racing and National Hunt racing but was forced to abandon Flat racing after an incident in May 2014 in which a horse, Artful Lady, had to be euthanized after a fall at the track. Four fixtures due to be staged at Warwick were transferred to other courses and at the end of July the decision to end Flat racing at the course was announced Warwick's final Flat fixture took place on 26 August 2014, with the last race being won by Louis Vee, ridden by Luke Morris.

The Effect of the Draw
There is not much of a draw bias on fast ground but when the going is very soft high numbers are favoured. This is because the ground on the inside rail gets chewed up and the outside rail rides faster. Concentrate on the top six stalls on soft and heavy ground
