What is Eoin Walsh's strike rate?

Eoin Walsh has won 140 of 1,800 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 7.8% (as at 14 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Eoin Walsh do best at?

Chepstow by strike rate: 8 wins from 61 rides (13.1%) 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 Eoin Walsh ride most for?

David Evans, with 237 rides since 2008 — 13% of the total. That pairing has won 20 (8.4%).

What is Eoin Walsh's Fair A/E?

1.03, from 1,789 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 90 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 8% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.03). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 19% (137 rides).

The read

It is weakest at Brighton (0% over 36 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 19% (n=137, Fair A/E 1.12), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 3.7% (n=189, Fair A/E 0.79). The market has consistently overbet horses returning fresh after 61+ days: 3.9% strike, Fair A/E 0.78 and −73.00 to a £1 stake over 283 rides — those runners underperform what the price implies. David Evans supplies 13% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (8.4%, A/E 0.86). The rider also reads well over 1m5f – 2m (15.3%, n=72). The standout partner of the record: Spellmaker (GB) — 7 wins from 27 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires Jan–Feb.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 7.8% 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.
