Welcome to the BetBright STATZONE, where we give you the stats and you make the decisions!

With British racing cancelled until at least Wednesday 13th Feb due to the outbreak of equine flu, the focus switches to Naas, in Ireland, this Saturday. Full marks to the ITV4 cameras, who are ensuring the show goes on by heading across the Irish Sea to cover FIVE races LIVE for punters.

Yes, we won’t be getting the quality that we’ll be missing from the Newbury and Warwick cards but we’ve still a Listed Mares’ Chase (2:10) to take in so well done to the ITV team for keeping things ticking over.

So, as always, we’ve got it all covered here on STATZONE with all the key trends, plus our verdict, on each of the LIVE ITV races – we’re confident these trends will point you in the direction of a few winners, or at least help narrow down some of the field to highlight the horses that fit the best profile of past winners – So, let’s get cracking!
