What is Mr P T Foley's strike rate?

Mr P T Foley has won 9 of 273 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 3.3% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Mr P T Foley do best at?

Fairyhouse by strike rate: 3 wins from 36 rides (8.3%) 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 Mr P T Foley ride most for?

Thomas Foley, with 257 rides since 2008 — 94% of the total. That pairing has won 9 (3.5%).

What is Mr P T Foley's Fair A/E?

0.60, from 273 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 Fairyhouse (8.3%, n=36) and Punchestown (6.3%, n=32) — all clear of the rider's 3.3% baseline. It is weakest at Gowran Park (0% over 35 rides) — the widest gap in the record. The market has consistently overbet claiming rides: 3.3% strike, Fair A/E 0.60 and −152.00 to a £1 stake over 272 rides — those runners underperformed what the price implied. Thomas Foley supplied 94% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (3.5%, A/E 0.62). The rider also read well off a break of 180+ days (6.5%, n=46). The record read poorly in Flat races — 0% over 30 rides, 3.3pts below the baseline.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 3.3% 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.
