EMPIRICAL COURSE & DISTANCE PILLAR GUIDE • JRA 1400m

Tokyo Racecourse 1400m — Empirical Class Par Times & GLD Speed Figure Benchmarks

High-tempo sprint-mile hybrid where stalkers settling 4th–8th before the 2.1m uphill rise hold the highest strike rate. (Inside Draw (1–4): 8.8% SR | Outside Draw (9+): 8.3% SR • Favored Running Style: Off-Pace Stalkers (OP) & Sustained 3F Closers)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the empirical Class Par and GLD Speed Figure benchmark at Tokyo Racecourse 1400m?

Tokyo Racecourse (JRA) benchmarks are calibrated directly from GLD Racing's empirical Class Par dataset (865,435 historical starts). At 1400m, standard velocities (m/s) and par finish times are normalized across the JRA class ladder alongside daily track variant and surface moisture adjustments.

What is the barrier draw and running style bias at Tokyo Racecourse 1400m?

Tokyo Racecourse features a 525.9m (Turf) / 501.6m (Dirt) homestretch (Left-Handed (Counter-Clockwise)). At 1400m, inside draws (Gates 1-4) record a 8.8% SR compared to 8.3% SR for outside draws (Gates 9+), favoring Off-Pace Stalkers (OP) & Sustained 3F Closers. High-tempo sprint-mile hybrid where stalkers settling 4th–8th before the 2.1m uphill rise hold the highest strike rate.

How do surface going, rail shifts, or sand moisture affect Tokyo Racecourse speed figures?

Rails A/B/C/D (3m shifts) • Cushion Value 9.2–10.6 • Turf-Start Dirt 1600m Chute. GLD Speed Figures automatically separate true horse velocity from surface speed variants so you can compare Tokyo Racecourse past performances directly against other JRA venues.
