What is Jack Sherwood's strike rate?

Jack Sherwood has won 63 of 641 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 9.8% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Jack Sherwood do best at?

Plumpton by strike rate: 7 wins from 51 rides (13.7%) 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 Jack Sherwood ride most for?

Suzy Smith, with 83 rides since 2008 — 13% of the total. That pairing has won 7 (8.4%).

What is Jack Sherwood's Fair A/E?

0.98, from 641 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

Rode around 50 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 10% of them — level with the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.98). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 13% (61 rides).

The read

It is weakest at Worcester (0% over 30 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 13.1% (n=61, Fair A/E 0.83), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 4.9% (n=123, Fair A/E 1.01). Suzy Smith supplied 13% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (8.4%, A/E 0.83). The rider also read well in Class 2 (17.8%, n=45) and on Heavy going (15.7%, n=51). The market has also underrated the rider off a 61-180-day break: Fair A/E 1.44 across 97 rides (14.4% strike, +15.39 to a £1 stake). 2 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the bet365 Handicap Chase at Ascot (Jan 2015, £43,792). The standout partner of the record was Silsol (GER) — 5 wins from 10 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fired Jan–Feb.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.8% 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.
