What is Micky Fenton's strike rate?

Micky Fenton has won 204 of 2,679 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 7.6% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Micky Fenton do best at?

Ripon by strike rate: 16 wins from 113 rides (14.2%) 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 Micky Fenton ride most for?

Paul Midgley, with 663 rides since 2008 — 25% of the total. That pairing has won 49 (7.4%).

What is Micky Fenton's Fair A/E?

0.92, from 2,656 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.

The read

The record is strongest at Hamilton (22.9%, n=35) and Ripon (14.2%, n=113) — all clear of the rider's 7.6% baseline. In Group and Graded company the record reads well at 11.1% (n=72, Fair A/E 1.55), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 4.6% (n=521, Fair A/E 0.88). The market has consistently overbet first rides on a horse: 4.9% strike, Fair A/E 0.74 and −421.31 to a £1 stake over 975 rides — those runners underperformed what the price implied. Paul Midgley supplied 25% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (7.4%, A/E 0.93). The rider also read well off a 0-7-day break (15.1%, n=185) and on Heavy going (17.4%, n=46). 17 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Stan James 1000 Guineas Stakes at Newmarket (May 2006, £187,374). The standout partner of the record was Suits Me (GB) — 10 wins from 40 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fired Jan–Feb.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 7.6% 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.

In our archive from its very first year (2005), so this career almost certainly began earlier than our record does. The figures above count 2005 onwards only — what the archive holds, not a full-career total. This card is the full archive census (2005→); the statistics in the header aggregate from 2008 — the floor that guarantees every horse a complete captured career — so this card can legitimately show more wins than the header.
