What is S J Hassett's strike rate?

S J Hassett has won 44 of 930 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 4.7% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does S J Hassett do best at?

Thurles by strike rate: 4 wins from 40 rides (10%) 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 S J Hassett ride most for?

Adrian Maguire, with 149 rides since 2008 — 16% of the total. That pairing has won 19 (12.8%).

What is S J Hassett's Fair A/E?

0.85, from 930 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.

KTB Rider Profile

Rode around 100 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 5% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.85). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 15% (46 rides).

Deterministic profile computed from 930 archived runs (lifetime window) · updated 6 Nov 2026

KTB at a glance Fired Oct–Nov Fresh horses: 6.1% 37.5% when favourite Adrian Maguire: 12.8% from 149 LTO winners: 15.2% Claiming: 5.1% Rode the favourite in 3% of races

The read

The record is strongest at Downpatrick (13.3%, n=30) and Thurles (10%, n=40) — all clear of the rider's 4.7% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 15.2% (n=46, Fair A/E 1.34). Horses returning fresh after 61+ days are the standout value angle: 6.1% strikes only just above baseline, but Fair A/E 1.40 and +8.00 to a £1 stake over 198 rides — a record the market has persistently underpriced. The market has consistently overbet first rides on a horse: 2.4% strike, Fair A/E 0.57 and −208.25 to a £1 stake over 377 rides — those runners underperformed what the price implied. Adrian Maguire supplied 16% of the rides and beats the rider's average (12.8% vs 4.7%, A/E 1.52) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also read well off a 0-7-day break (10.7%, n=75) and off a 61-180-day break (9.4%, n=106). 3 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Ladbrokes.com Munster National Handicap Chase at Limerick (Oct 2010, £55,800). Seasonally, the rider fired Oct–Nov.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 4.7% 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.
