What is Mr C McConnell's strike rate?

Mr C McConnell has won 8 of 160 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 5% (as at 10 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Mr C McConnell do best at?

Dundalk (AW) by strike rate: 4 wins from 53 rides (7.5%) 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 Mr C McConnell ride most for?

John C McConnell, with 136 rides since 2022 — 85% of the total. That pairing has won 8 (5.9%).

What is Mr C McConnell's Fair A/E?

1.04, from 160 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.

The read

First rides on a horse have been a poor signal at 1.4% (n=70, Fair A/E 0.33). John C McConnell supplies 85% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (5.9%, A/E 1.27) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well over 1m – 1m1f (9.1%, n=44). The record reads poorly over 6f – 7f — 0% over 38 rides, 5pts below the baseline.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 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.
