Fred Daly
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 30 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 8% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 0.81). First rides on a horse are a strength: 10% on the first captured pairing (98 rides).
The market has consistently overbet claiming rides: 7.4% strike, Fair A/E 0.73 and −59.94 to a £1 stake over 121 rides — those runners underperform what the price implies. The record reads poorly over 1m2f – 1m4f — 2.7% over 37 rides, 5.7pts below the baseline.
Riding patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 8.4% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 8.4% 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.
