What is Barry Geraghty's strike rate?

Barry Geraghty has won 1,080 of 5,398 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 20% (as at 28 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Barry Geraghty do best at?

Kempton by strike rate: 86 wins from 277 rides (31%) since 2008. 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 Barry Geraghty ride most for?

Nicky Henderson, with 1,529 rides since 2008 — 28% of the total. That pairing has won 452 (29.6%).

What is Barry Geraghty's Fair A/E?

1.12, from 5,393 rides with a computed fair probability since 2008. 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.

KTB Rider Profile

Rode around 390 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 20% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.12). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 29% (1,223 rides).

The read

The record is strongest at Huntingdon (39.7%, n=63) and Ludlow (37.7%, n=53) — all clear of the rider's 20% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 28.9% (n=1,223, Fair A/E 1.13), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 13.2% (n=2,171, Fair A/E 1.14). Nicky Henderson supplied 28% of the rides and beats the rider's average (29.6% vs 20%, A/E 1.19) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also read well in Class 4 (31.4%, n=420) and in Class 6 (36.5%, n=52). 260 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup Chase at Cheltenham (Mar 2013, £313,225). The standout partner of the record was Oscar Whisky (IRE) — 16 wins from 27 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fired Nov–Feb.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 20% 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.

In our archive from its very first year (2005), so this career almost certainly began earlier than our record does. The figures above count 2005 onwards only — what the archive holds, not a full-career total. This card is the full archive census (2005→); the statistics in the header aggregate from 2008 — the floor that guarantees every horse a complete captured career — so this card can legitimately show more wins than the header.
