Alice Springs Racing Analysis Report

Date: 04 April 2026

Track: Alice Springs (Dirt)

Status: Complete

📈 TRACK BIAS & ENVIRONMENTAL REPORT

Surface: Dirt (Sand/Loam)

Historical Profile: The Alice Springs dirt circuit traditionally favors horses with tactical speed. Statistical data from recent seasons shows that 62% of winners over 1000m-1200m settle in the first two positions.

Expected Bias: “The Fence is Gold.” Early in the meeting, expect the rail to be the place to be. As the kickback increases through the afternoon, look for horses capable of sitting “one-off” the fence to avoid the spray.

Adjustment: Horses mapped to lead or sit outside lead (OSP) from low-to-mid barriers receive a +0.5 boost to their 10-Factor Score.
