Chepstow by strike rate: 13 wins from 85 rides (15.3%) 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.

Eve Johnson Houghton, with 1,081 rides since 2022 — 46% of the total. That pairing has won 125 (11.6%).

0.94, from 2,322 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 Chepstow (15.3%, n=85) and Newmarket (15.8%, n=38) — all clear of the rider's 9% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 16.6% (n=217, Fair A/E 1.01), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 5.3% (n=244, Fair A/E 0.93). In Group and Graded company the record are the standout value angle: 9.5% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.28 and +18.85 to a £1 stake over 105 rides — a record the market has persistently underpriced. The market has consistently overbet first rides on a horse: 5.5% strike, Fair A/E 0.77 and −520.80 to a £1 stake over 944 rides — those runners underperform what the price implies. Eve Johnson Houghton supplies 46% of the rides and edges the rider's average (11.6% vs 9%, A/E 0.98) — the market has that partnership priced right. The record reads poorly over 1m5f – 2m — 1.2% over 83 rides, 7.8pts below the baseline. 15 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Queen Anne Stakes at Ascot (Jun 2018, £367,197). The standout partner of the record: Beauzon (GB) — 9 wins from 21 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires Jan–Apr.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 9% 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.
