P W Flood
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%".
Rode around 180 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 10% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.13). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 13% (127 rides).
The record is strongest at Listowel (22.2%, n=45), Naas (16.9%, n=65) and Fairyhouse (15.6%, n=128) — all clear of the rider's 9.6% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 12.6% (n=127, Fair A/E 0.96). D T Hughes supplied 18% of the rides and beats the rider's average (15.4% vs 9.6%, A/E 1.31) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. 27 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Powers Whiskey Irish Grand National Handicap Chase at Fairyhouse (Mar 2008, £141,500). Seasonally, the rider fired Nov–Feb.
Riding patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 9.6% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.6% 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.

Quick answers
- What is P W Flood's strike rate?

- Which course does P W Flood do best at?
- Listowel by strike rate: 10 wins from 45 rides (22.2%) 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.

- What is P W Flood's Fair A/E?
- 1.13, from 1,262 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.
