What is Charles Bishop's strike rate?

Charles Bishop has won 615 of 6,213 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 9.9% (as at 15 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Charles Bishop do best at?

Brighton by strike rate: 38 wins from 269 rides (14.1%) 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 Charles Bishop ride most for?

Eve Johnson Houghton, with 2,046 rides since 2008 — 33% of the total. That pairing has won 240 (11.7%).

Is Charles Bishop in form?

In the last 14 days: 20 rides, 1 winner, a strike rate of 5%. That is below the baseline of 9.9% since 2008.

What is Charles Bishop's Fair A/E?

1.00, from 6,174 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

Rides around 330 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 10% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.00). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 19% (586 rides). The rider is quiet just now — 1 winner in the last fortnight, below their own baseline.

The read

The record is strongest at Epsom (19.4%, n=103) and Ripon (21.6%, n=37) — all clear of the rider's 9.9% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 19.1% (n=586, Fair A/E 1.16), but in Group and Graded company the record reads poorly at 6.1% (n=244, Fair A/E 0.84). Right now the rider is in a quiet spell: 1 from 20 rides in the last 14 days (5%, 4.9pts below the 9.9% baseline). Eve Johnson Houghton supplies 33% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (11.7%, A/E 1.01) — the market has that partnership priced right. The rider also reads well off a 0-7-day break (17.7%, n=333). 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 Mar–Apr.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.9% 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. Group / Graded covers pattern and listed races.

Quick answers

What is Charles Bishop's strike rate?: Charles Bishop has won 615 of 6,213 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 9.9% (as at 15 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Charles Bishop do best at?: Brighton by strike rate: 38 wins from 269 rides (14.1%) 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 Charles Bishop ride most for?: Eve Johnson Houghton, with 2,046 rides since 2008 — 33% of the total. That pairing has won 240 (11.7%).
Is Charles Bishop in form?: In the last 14 days: 20 rides, 1 winner, a strike rate of 5%. That is below the baseline of 9.9% since 2008.
What is Charles Bishop's Fair A/E?: 1.00, from 6,174 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.
