Joe Leavy
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 330 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 11% of them — level with the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 0.97). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 15% (173 rides).
The record is strongest at Ffos Las (19.4%, n=36) and Lingfield (17.8%, n=45) — all clear of the rider's 10.5% baseline. It is weakest at Salisbury (3.7% over 54 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 14.5% (n=173, Fair A/E 0.90), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 5.4% (n=147, Fair A/E 0.97). Richard Hannon supplies 31% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (10.3%, A/E 0.90). The record reads poorly in Class 2 — 5% over 139 rides, 5.5pts below the baseline. The standout partner of the record: Bungle Bay (IRE) — 6 wins from 29 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires Jan–Mar.
Riding patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 10.5% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 10.5% 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.

KTB’s figures
the forward record · since 5 Oct 2026KTB’s figures on this rider’s mounts since 8 Oct 2026: the KTB Selection in 2 runs (won 1) · top-rated on KTB Rating in 4 runs (won 2) · fastest on KTB Speed in 4 runs (won 2) · to 29 Oct 2026.
Each pick was a KTB figure’s choice before the off — the published KTB Selection, the top-rated horse on KTB Rating, the fastest on KTB Speed — settled against the result the next morning and never worked out again; “did not run” is counted apart. GB and Irish races only. A record of weeks so far: read it as a count, not a verdict.
Quick answers
- What is Joe Leavy's strike rate?
- Joe Leavy has won 173 of 1,652 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 10.5% (as at 4 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
- Which course does Joe Leavy do best at?
- Lingfield by strike rate: 8 wins from 45 rides (17.8%) 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 Joe Leavy ride most for?
- Richard Hannon, with 504 rides since 2022 — 31% of the total. That pairing has won 52 (10.3%).
- Is Joe Leavy in form?
- Too few rides in the last 14 days to read — 6 rides, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
- What is Joe Leavy's Fair A/E?
- 0.97, from 1,642 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.
