The read

The record is strongest at Newcastle (AW) (14%, n=50), clear of the rider's 7.5% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 18.2% (n=33, Fair A/E 1.31), but horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 0% (n=55, Fair A/E 0.00). Ivan Furtado supplies 88% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (8%, A/E 1.08) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well on Good to Firm going (13.2%, n=38) and over 1m5f – 2m (13.3%, n=30). The record reads poorly off a 61-180-day break — 0% over 43 rides, 7.5pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider on Good going: Fair A/E 0.45 across 55 rides (3.6% strike, −48.77 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies. The standout partner of the record: Bowood (GB) — 5 wins from 26 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires Feb–Apr.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 7.5% 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.

Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 3 Nov 2026 — what they have done, not a forecast. A going or a distance is named only where at least 100 progeny runs sit 3 or more points from the sire's own win rate. Distance bands cover Flat and jumps together.

Quick answers

What is Elle-May Croot's strike rate?
Elle-May Croot has won 33 of 442 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 7.5% (as at 3 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Elle-May Croot do best at?
Newcastle (AW) by strike rate: 7 wins from 50 rides (14%) 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.
Which yard does Elle-May Croot ride most for?
Ivan Furtado, with 388 rides since 2022 — 88% of the total. That pairing has won 31 (8%).
Is Elle-May Croot in form?
Too few rides in the last 14 days to read — 2 rides, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Elle-May Croot's Fair A/E?
1.04, from 437 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.
Fair A/E compares wins with a margin-stripped market expectation. Favourite-heavy samples — top yards, leading riders — naturally read a few points warm, so 1.05 means "beat the margin-free market read", not "the market underrates this by 5%". Three sample sizes are reported and never blended: runs (n), the ROI basis (n at SP), and the fair-A/E basis (n with a computed fair probability).

Strike rate is wins over all runs (n). ROI is £1 level stakes at SP over runs with a parseable price (n at SP). Fair A/E is wins over margin-stripped market expectation, over runs with a computed fair probability (n fair). The three Ns can legitimately differ and are always shown. Figures as at 3 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
