Wayne Hutchinson
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 310 times a season, almost all over hurdles and fences, winning on 16% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.08). Riding last-time-out winners the record reads 24% (495 rides). Rode mostly for Alan King — 61% of rides in the window.
The record is strongest at Plumpton (29.4%, n=102), clear of the rider's 15.6% baseline. It is weakest at Cheltenham (7.2% over 209 rides) — the largest sample in the record, and the widest gap. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 23.6% (n=495, Fair A/E 1.11), but rides in big fields of 14 or more have been a poor signal at 8.2% (n=868, Fair A/E 1.07). Alan King supplied 61% of the rides and edges the rider's average (18.7% vs 15.6%, A/E 1.06) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. 34 Group and Graded wins sit in the archive record — the biggest prize the rider has landed: the Hennessy Gold Cup Chase at Newbury (Nov 2015, £113,900). The standout partner of the record was Balder Succes (FR) — 8 wins from 16 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fired Aug–Sep.
Riding patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 15.6% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 15.6% 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.

- Huntingdon by strike rate: 33 wins from 183 rides (18%) 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.

- Alan King, with 2,275 rides since 2008 — 61% of the total. That pairing has won 425 (18.7%).
- What is Wayne Hutchinson's Fair A/E?
- 1.08, from 3,735 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.
