The read

The record is strongest at Lingfield (24.2%, n=33), clear of the rider's 13.4% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 23.1% (n=130, Fair A/E 1.07). Right now the rider is firing: 5 winners from 27 rides in the last 14 days (18.5%, 5.1pts above the 13.4% baseline). George Boughey supplies 19% of the rides and edges the rider's average (15.5% vs 13.4%, A/E 1.01) — the market has that partnership priced right. The rider also reads well over 1m5f – 2m (27.1%, n=48) and off a 0-7-day break (23.5%, n=51). The record reads poorly in Class 2 — 3.6% over 56 rides, 9.8pts below the baseline. The standout partner of the record: Kranjcar (IRE) — 5 wins from 8 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires Oct–Nov.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 13.4% 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.

Runs, wins and places only: a strike rate or a return on a handful of runs is noise, so none is quoted per horse — each horse's full record is on its own page.

Top line: the rider's own record with each sire's runners (win %, wins–runs), same window as the header; faded under 30 runs. Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 19 Oct 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 Jack Callan's strike rate?
Jack Callan has won 115 of 861 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 13.4% (as at 19 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Jack Callan do best at?
Lingfield by strike rate: 8 wins from 33 rides (24.2%) 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 Jack Callan ride most for?
George Boughey, with 161 rides since 2022 — 19% of the total. That pairing has won 25 (15.5%).
Is Jack Callan in form?
In the last 14 days: 27 rides, 5 winners, a strike rate of 18.5%. That is above the baseline of 13.4% since 2022.
What is Jack Callan's Fair A/E?
1.04, from 858 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 19 October 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
