Trackside Paddock Analysis - Champions Day 2026

Champions Day at Ascot provides a fitting top-class crescendo to the Flat season, and we are delighted to have teamed up with TRACKSIDE to offer a Paddock Analysis Service for every race at Ascot’s big October Saturday. The service offers a new perspective for a unique betting angle on the UK’s biggest meetings, provided by horse conformation experts. It also provides you with direct, valuable information straight to your mobile from the racecourse prior to each race – and every race on the Flat season finale will be covered. HOW IT WORKS 1. Meeting Preview highlighting any notable information for the races ahead sent before the meeting by email. 2. Selections (sent via SMS before each race) are made through paddock analysis, using the appearance, action and behaviour of each individual horse. Examples of the information sent by SMS before each race can be seen below. SERVICE BEGINS SATURDAY, 17TH OCTOBER
