What is Sorcha Woods's strike rate?

Sorcha Woods has won 13 of 181 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 7.2% (as at 10 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Sorcha Woods do best at?

Dundalk (AW) by strike rate: 6 wins from 64 rides (9.4%) 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 Sorcha Woods ride most for?

Edward Lynam, with 53 rides since 2022 — 29% of the total. That pairing has won 8 (15.1%).

What is Sorcha Woods's Fair A/E?

1.17, from 181 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

Horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 2.4% (n=42, Fair A/E 0.67). Edward Lynam supplies 29% of the rides and beats the rider's average (15.1% vs 7.2%, A/E 1.86) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well off a 15-30-day break (12.7%, n=55) and over 6f – 7f (10.7%, n=75). The record reads poorly over 1m2f – 1m4f — 2.6% over 39 rides, 4.6pts below the baseline.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 7.2% 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.
