With the Cheltenham Festival just around the corner, we take a different approach to the formbook by diving into RaceiQ data with Racing TV analyst Page Fuller. RaceiQ uses GPS tracking technology to measure performance metrics such as jumping efficiency, stride length, entry speed into obstacles, and finishing sectionals, offering a completely different perspective on how horses perform in top-level races. Page joins Emmet Kennedy to analyse the key metrics behind the leading contenders for the biggest races at Cheltenham, highlighting the performances that stand out in the data and identifying the horses whose numbers suggest they could have a major impact at the Festival. Page has produced Racing TV’s Cheltenham Festival RaceiQ data pack covering all 13 Grade 1 races. The aim isn’t tipping winners, but identifying the performances and metrics that stand out in the data and understanding what they may tell us about how these races could unfold. 🏇 RACES PREVIEWED Supreme Novices’ Hurdle Turners’ Novices’ Hurdle Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle JCB Triumph Hurdle Arkle Novices’ Chase Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase Champion Hurdle Close Brothers Mares’ Hurdle Stayers’ Hurdle Queen Mother Champion Chase Cheltenham Gold Cup 📊 WHAT YOU’LL GET FROM THIS EPISODE RaceiQ data insights from Racing TV analyst Page Fuller Performance metrics for the key contenders in the Grade 1 races Analysis of jumping efficiency, stride patterns and sectionals A different perspective on Cheltenham form using GPS tracking data 🧠 WHY THIS EPISODE MATTERS Cheltenham races are often decided by small margins, and traditional form study doesn’t always reveal the full picture.
