Speed Figures in UK Racing: Friend or Foe?
Speed figures — especially Topspeed in the Racing Post — are everywhere in UK racing. But should punters trust them?
In this episode, we take a deep dive into the truth about speed figures. You’ll learn:
- What speed figures really measure (and what they don’t).
- Why Topspeed numbers can reveal hidden betting opportunities.
- The traps that mislead punters in falsely run races, small fields, and tricky ground.
- A practical framework for blending speed figures with pace and class to sharpen your edge.
By the end, you’ll know how to stop treating figures as gospel — and start using them as part of a smarter, more logical approach to betting.
