Frequently Asked Questions
What is the empirical Class Par and GLD Speed Figure benchmark at Ohi Racecourse (Tokyo City Keiba) 1600m?
Ohi Racecourse (Tokyo City Keiba) (NAR) benchmarks are calibrated directly from GLD Racing's empirical Class Par dataset (865,435 historical starts). At 1600m, standard velocities (m/s) and par finish times are normalized across the NAR class ladder alongside daily track variant and surface moisture adjustments.
What is the barrier draw and running style bias at Ohi Racecourse (Tokyo City Keiba) 1600m?
Ohi Racecourse (Tokyo City Keiba) features a 386.0m (Outer Dirt) / 286.0m (Inner Dirt) homestretch (Right-Handed (Outer 386m / Inner 286m) + Left-Handed 1650m). At 1600m, inside draws (Gates 1-4) record a 11.5% SR compared to 6.1% SR for outside draws (Gates 9+), favoring Inside Draws (Gates 1–5) & First-Turn Stalkers. Ohi 1600m uses the Inner Course (286m short stretch, four turns); unlike 1200m/1800m, inside gates and early corner position are paramount.
How do surface going, rail shifts, or sand moisture affect Ohi Racecourse (Tokyo City Keiba) speed figures?
Ohi (Tokyo City Keiba) • 386m Longest NAR South Kanto Straight • Deep Inside Rail Sand • Wet-Dirt Speed Acceleration. GLD Speed Figures automatically separate true horse velocity from surface speed variants so you can compare Ohi Racecourse (Tokyo City Keiba) past performances directly against other NAR venues.
