The read

Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 19.3% (n=57, Fair A/E 1.25). Horses returning fresh after 61+ days are the standout value angle: 12.3% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.28 and +49.95 to a £1 stake over 171 rides — a record the market has persistently underpriced. D Mele supplies 31% of the rides and edges the rider's average (15.9% vs 11.1%, A/E 1.30) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The record reads poorly on Good to Soft going — 5.3% over 38 rides, 5.8pts below the baseline. 15 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Prix Maurice Gillois - Grand Steeple-Chase at Auteuil (FR) (Nov 2023, £141,372). The standout partner of the record: Leader Sport (FR) — 5 wins from 7 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires Jul–Aug.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 11.1% 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.

Showing the 60 most-raced of the 376 horses ridden in this window — each ran at least 3 times. Horses with fewer runs aren't listed; search finds any horse since 2005. 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.

Beneath it: every run by that sire's progeny in our archive since 2008, as at 14 Nov 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 Leo-Paul Brechet's strike rate?
Leo-Paul Brechet has won 70 of 632 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 11.1% (as at 14 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
Which course does Leo-Paul Brechet do best at?
Compiegne (FR) by strike rate: 14 wins from 112 rides (12.5%) 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 Leo-Paul Brechet ride most for?
D Mele, with 195 rides since 2022 — 31% of the total. That pairing has won 31 (15.9%).
Is Leo-Paul Brechet in form?
Too few rides in the last 14 days to read — 14 rides, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.
What is Leo-Paul Brechet's Fair A/E?
1.14, from 628 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 14 November 2026, computed from our own results archive (2005 onwards; aggregates from 2008).
