Favourites include joint favourites. Dimmed rows have fewer than 30 runs. Fair A/E compares wins with a margin-stripped market expectation at SP. Favourite-heavy samples naturally read a few points warm, so 1.05 means "beat the margin-free market read", not "the market underrates this by 5%". £1 P/L is level stakes at SP.

Angles that have paid

at SP, two periods

Past results at starting price, not a forecast. Each angle made a £1 level-stakes profit in both periods (Jan 2005 – Sep 2021, and since Oct 2021), with at least 100 SP-priced runs and 10 winners in all, and is still in profit with its single biggest winner taken out. The same on every view of this page.

No angle at Huntingdon clears those tests. Nothing here has paid consistently at SP — which is itself worth knowing.

About Huntingdon

checked October 2026

Layout and key facts

  • Where: Brampton, near Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire — jumps only, turf.
  • Shape: Right-handed and flat, about 1m4f round, with easy bends, nine fences per circuit (two open ditches; the water jump was filled in in 2008) and a run-in of under a furlong.
  • Season: Jumps fixtures from October to May, usually 17 to 19 meetings a year, with novice, handicap and Graded races.

Going and the seasons

  • Autumn and winter: The free-draining soil often gives good or good to firm ground; it turns soft or heavy after prolonged rain, and the course has flooded and lost fixtures in the past.
  • Spring: The same range, from good to firm to soft.

Signature races and fixtures

  • December: The Peterborough Chase (Grade 2, about 2m4f).
  • February: The Sidney Banks Memorial Novices' Hurdle (Listed, about 2m3f).

Practical notes

  • Getting there: Off the A14 (junction 22), the A1 or the A141, with free parking on site; by rail to Huntingdon, about two miles away, with a free courtesy bus on racedays.
  • Viewing: The stands see the whole circuit, with an open ditch jumped in front of them.
