The read

The record is strongest at Happy Valley (11.1%, n=45), clear of the rider's 7.6% baseline. Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a positive signal at 12.5% (n=32, Fair A/E 1.28). The market has consistently overbet first rides on a horse: 6.2% strike, Fair A/E 0.76 and −24.90 to a £1 stake over 113 rides — those runners underperform what the price implies. The rider also reads well over 1m – 1m1f (13.5%, n=52). The record reads poorly off a 15-30-day break — 2.6% over 39 rides, 5pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider on Good to Firm going: Fair A/E 0.82 across 53 rides (9.4% strike, −4.60 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies. 51 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the The Chinese Recreation Club Challenge Cup at Sha Tin (HK) (Oct 2026, £165,329). The standout partner of the record: Iron Spirit (FR) — 6 wins from 37 rides together.

Written from the figures on this page — every claim carries its sample. Descriptive, not a tip.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 7.6% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, not tips. Tiles under 30 runs render muted. First rides are the first captured pairing of horse and rider; last-time-out winners are horses whose previous captured run was a win; claiming rides are runs where the rider carried a weight claim. Group / Graded covers pattern and listed races.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 114 horses ridden in this window — each ran at least 1 time. Horses with fewer runs aren't listed; search finds any horse since 2005. Runs, wins and places only: a strike rate or a return on a handful of runs is noise, so none is quoted per horse — each horse's full record is on its own page.

Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 19 Oct 2026 — what they have done, not a forecast. A going or a distance is named only where at least 100 progeny runs sit 3 or more points from the sire's own win rate. Distance bands cover Flat and jumps together.

Quick answers

What is Alexis Badel's strike rate?
Alexis Badel has won 12 of 157 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 7.6% (as at 19 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Alexis Badel do best at?
Happy Valley by strike rate: 5 wins from 45 rides (11.1%) since 2022. Read from the 15 courses with the most rides on the same basis, and only those with at least 30 — a small sample cannot top the list, and a rarely-visited course is not in the comparison.
What is Alexis Badel's Fair A/E?
0.70, from 85 rides with a computed fair probability since 2022. Fair A/E compares actual wins with a margin-stripped market expectation, so 1.00 is par: above it the wins came at bigger prices than the margin-free market implied, below it they did not.
Fair A/E compares wins with a margin-stripped market expectation. Favourite-heavy samples — top yards, leading riders — naturally read a few points warm, so 1.05 means "beat the margin-free market read", not "the market underrates this by 5%". Three sample sizes are reported and never blended: runs (n), the ROI basis (n at SP), and the fair-A/E basis (n with a computed fair probability).

Strike rate is wins over all runs (n). ROI is £1 level stakes at SP over runs with a parseable price (n at SP). Fair A/E is wins over margin-stripped market expectation, over runs with a computed fair probability (n fair). The three Ns can legitimately differ and are always shown. Figures as at 19 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
