What is Archie Young's strike rate?

Archie Young has won 50 of 410 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 12.2% (as at 4 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Archie Young do best at?

Hamilton by strike rate: 7 wins from 31 rides (22.6%) 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.

Which yard does Archie Young ride most for?

Charlie Johnston, with 140 rides since 2022 — 34% of the total. That pairing has won 22 (15.7%).

What is Archie Young's Fair A/E?

1.10, from 409 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.

The read

The record is strongest at Hamilton (22.6%, n=31), clear of the rider's 12.2% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 22.7% (n=44, Fair A/E 1.24), but horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 5.4% (n=37, Fair A/E 0.72). Charlie Johnston supplies 34% of the rides and edges the rider's average (15.7% vs 12.2%, A/E 1.32) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well off a 0-7-day break (19.5%, n=41) and over 1m2f – 1m4f (16.8%, n=125). The market has also underrated the rider in Class 5: Fair A/E 1.37 across 137 rides (16.1% strike, +27.90 to a £1 stake). The record reads poorly on Good to Firm going — 7% over 43 rides, 5.2pts below the baseline. The standout partner of the record: Novak (GB) — 5 wins from 22 rides together.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 12.2% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, for you to weigh. 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.
