What is Tony Culhane's strike rate?

Tony Culhane has won 168 of 1,830 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 9.2% (as at 6 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does Tony Culhane do best at?

Wolverhampton (AW) by strike rate: 34 wins from 253 rides (13.4%) 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 Tony Culhane ride most for?

Mick Channon, with 478 rides since 2008 — 26% of the total. That pairing has won 44 (9.2%).

What is Tony Culhane's Fair A/E?

0.90, from 1,817 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 170 times a season, almost all on the flat, winning on 9% of them — a touch below the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 0.90). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 17% (172 rides).

The read

The record is strongest at Bath (24.3%, n=37), clear of the rider's 9.2% baseline. It is weakest at Newbury (0% over 42 rides) — the widest gap in the record. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 16.9% (n=172, Fair A/E 0.94), but in Group and Graded company the record reads poorly at 1.8% (n=56, Fair A/E 0.31). Mick Channon supplied 26% of the rides and matches the rider's average almost exactly (9.2%, A/E 0.87). The rider also read well off a 0-7-day break (17%, n=165). 12 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the totepool Two-Year-Old Trophy at Redcar (Oct 2005, £111,360). Seasonally, the rider fired Dec–Feb.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 9.2% 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.

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.
