Fergus Gregory
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%".
Rides around 50 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 12% of them — beating the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 1.03). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 26% (35 rides). Rides mostly for Olly Murphy — 60% of rides in the window.
Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 25.7% (n=35, Fair A/E 1.36), but first rides on a horse have been a poor signal at 8.1% (n=123, Fair A/E 0.65). Olly Murphy supplies 60% of the rides and edges the rider's average (14% vs 11.7%, A/E 0.99) — the market has that partnership priced right. The rider also reads well on Good to Soft going (16.5%, n=85) and in Class 5 (16.5%, n=79). The market has also underrated the rider off a 31-60-day break: Fair A/E 1.31 across 94 rides (16% strike, +24.72 to a £1 stake). The record reads poorly in Class 3 — 3.2% over 31 rides, 8.5pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider on Good going: Fair A/E 0.71 across 82 rides (7.3% strike, −44.00 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies. Seasonally, the rider fires Jan–Feb.
Riding patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 11.7% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 11.7% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, not tips. 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.
