Stephen Mulqueen
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%".
Rides around 90 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 7% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across five seasons (Fair A/E 0.85). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 14% (37 rides). Rides mostly for Lucinda Russell — 50% of rides in the window.
It is weakest at Musselburgh (2.4% over 41 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 13.5% (n=37, Fair A/E 0.75), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 3.1% (n=32, Fair A/E 0.79). The market has consistently overbet horses returning fresh after 61+ days: 5.4% strike, Fair A/E 0.81 and −56.62 to a £1 stake over 111 rides — those runners underperform what the price implies. Lucinda Russell supplies 50% of the rides and edges the rider's average (11.3% vs 7%, A/E 0.88). The rider also reads well on Heavy going (11.9%, n=67). The record reads poorly off a break of 180+ days — 2.6% over 38 rides, 4.4pts below the baseline. 3 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Beverly R Steinman Hurdle Handicap at Saratoga (USA) (Jun 2026, £66,667). The standout partner of the record: Lake View Lad (IRE) — 6 wins from 16 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires Mar–Apr.
Riding patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 7% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 7% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, not tips. 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 Stephen Mulqueen's strike rate?
- Stephen Mulqueen has won 31 of 440 rides since 2022, a strike rate of 7% (as at 27 October 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.
- Which course does Stephen Mulqueen do best at?
- Perth by strike rate: 5 wins from 46 rides (10.9%) 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.

- Lucinda Russell, with 221 rides since 2022 — 50% of the total. That pairing has won 25 (11.3%).
- What is Stephen Mulqueen's Fair A/E?
- 0.85, from 440 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.
