How this page is made

Every figure is counted from the results we hold for Star Pelaw over the last 365 days and recomputed as new results arrive, so the page is never older than the racing. Non-runners are excluded; trap shares are compared with an even chance for the average field size; returns are level stakes at the industry starting price. Running-style figures come from the stewards' comments parsed into fields. 99.9% of the results in this window have been confirmed by an independent second source — see our data quality page.
