What is Mitch Godwin's strike rate?

Mitch Godwin has won 60 of 795 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 7.5% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Mitch Godwin do best at?

Brighton by strike rate: 8 wins from 57 rides (14%) 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 Mitch Godwin ride most for?

Sylvester Kirk, with 223 rides since 2008 — 28% of the total. That pairing has won 22 (9.9%).

What is Mitch Godwin's Fair A/E?

0.95, from 791 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 Brighton (14%, n=57), clear of the rider's 7.5% baseline. It is weakest at Chelmsford City (AW) (0% over 43 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 10.6% (n=66, Fair A/E 0.75), but horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 3% (n=99, Fair A/E 0.55). The market has consistently overbet first rides on a horse: 5.4% strike, Fair A/E 0.82 and −175.93 to a £1 stake over 354 rides — those runners underperformed what the price implied. Sylvester Kirk supplied 28% of the rides and edges the rider's average (9.9% vs 7.5%, A/E 0.99) — the market has that partnership priced right. The rider also read well off a 0-7-day break (15.5%, n=58). The record read poorly off a break of 180+ days — 0% over 32 rides, 7.5pts below the baseline. Seasonally, the rider fired Jul–Aug.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 7.5% 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.
