What is D C Byrne's strike rate?

D C Byrne has won 31 of 552 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 5.6% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does D C Byrne do best at?

Leopardstown by strike rate: 4 wins from 33 rides (12.1%) 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 D C Byrne ride most for?

H Rogers, with 170 rides since 2008 — 31% of the total. That pairing has won 13 (7.6%).

What is D C Byrne's Fair A/E?

0.73, from 549 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 70 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 6% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.73). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 14% (43 rides).

The read

The record is strongest at Leopardstown (12.1%, n=33), clear of the rider's 5.6% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 14% (n=43, Fair A/E 0.96), but horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 2.2% (n=93, Fair A/E 0.40). The market has consistently overbet first rides on a horse: 3.8% strike, Fair A/E 0.51 and −220.57 to a £1 stake over 315 rides — those runners underperformed what the price implied. H Rogers supplied 31% of the rides and edges the rider's average (7.6% vs 5.6%, A/E 1.30) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also read well off a 0-7-day break (12.9%, n=93) and over 1m2f – 1m4f (9.3%, n=150). The record read poorly off a 61-180-day break — 1.5% over 66 rides, 4.1pts below the baseline. The standout partner of the record was Mid Mon Lady (IRE) — 5 wins from 26 rides together.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 5.6% 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.
