What is George Rooke's strike rate?

George Rooke has won 92 of 1,060 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 8.7% (as at 22 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does George Rooke do best at?

Salisbury by strike rate: 6 wins from 30 rides (20%) 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 George Rooke ride most for?

Richard Hughes, with 245 rides since 2022 — 23% of the total. That pairing has won 31 (12.7%).

What is George Rooke's Fair A/E?

1.03, from 1,055 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.

The read

The record is strongest at Salisbury (20%, n=30) and Wolverhampton (AW) (15.8%, n=133) — all clear of the rider's 8.7% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 22% (n=100, Fair A/E 1.32), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 0.9% (n=113, Fair A/E 0.23). Richard Hughes supplies 23% of the rides and edges the rider's average (12.7% vs 8.7%, A/E 0.99) — the market has that partnership priced right. The record reads poorly in Class 2 — 1.2% over 84 rides, 7.5pts below the baseline. The market has consistently overbet the rider on Good to Soft going: Fair A/E 0.18 across 69 rides (1.4% strike, −54.00 to a £1 stake) — runners there underperform what the price implies. 2 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the William Hill Conqueror Fillies' Stakes at Goodwood (Apr 2022, £29,489). The standout partner of the record: Largo Bay (USA) — 7 wins from 30 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires May–Jun.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 8.7% 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.
