Are there any past performance publications that provides fractional times for the UK races?

Do any tracks in the UK chart races with fractional times?

If not why such a difference from the North American tracks where fractions play such a role?

Not any more.
Turftrax did individual horse sectionals same as Trakus but folded due to lack of interest.
UK has a universal class handicap system, proper turf/ AW speed ratings and detailed individual horse in race reports. Most people work out races from that, and lately just watching video recordings. I automate the collection of individual sectionals from race videos and some do that but few have the time.
