What is David Mullins's strike rate?

David Mullins has won 223 of 1,867 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 11.9% (as at 14 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does David Mullins do best at?

Tramore by strike rate: 13 wins from 64 rides (20.3%) 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 David Mullins ride most for?

W P Mullins, with 357 rides since 2008 — 19% of the total. That pairing has won 55 (15.4%).

What is David Mullins's Fair A/E?

1.08, from 1,867 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 100 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 12% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.08). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 17% (288 rides).

The read

The record is strongest at Roscommon (22.2%, n=45) and Tramore (20.3%, n=64) — all clear of the rider's 11.9% baseline. It is weakest at Cheltenham (0% over 56 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 17.4% (n=288, Fair A/E 1.08), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 8.6% (n=848, Fair A/E 1.12). W P Mullins supplies 19% of the rides and edges the rider's average (15.4% vs 11.9%, A/E 1.05) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. 45 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Crabbie's Grand National Chase at Aintree (Apr 2016, £561,300). The standout partner of the record: Court Maid (IRE) — 7 wins from 13 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires Jan–Feb.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 11.9% 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.
