IT makes sense that low-drawn horses are advantaged over seven and eight and nine furlongs at York. Instinct dictates. The first turn comes up quite quickly after you leave the stalls over those distances, and the wider you are, the more ground you have to cover around the bend.
They start in a chute over seven furlongs, so the seven-furlong bend is only half the bend that the eight and nine-furlong bend is, and the advantage of a low draw over seven furlongs is not as significant as the advantage of a low draw over eight and nine.
