Is There Any Barrier Draw Bias in the Champagne Stakes?

Looking at the most successful barrier draws in the Champagne Stakes over the past 40 years, there is no distinguishable trend to suggest that runners are favoured by certain barriers.

Barrier six clearly has the most winners as shown below that isn’t an indication of a bias. Horses have been able to win from barriers 11 and 12 just as easily as barriers two and three for example.

Star juveniles such as Helmet, Pierro and Guelph have helped bolster the barrier six winners.
