What is William Cox's strike rate?

William Cox has won 128 of 2,396 rides since 2008, a strike rate of 5.3% (as at 13 November 2026). Figures are computed from our own results archive.

Which course does William Cox do best at?

Leicester by strike rate: 6 wins from 47 rides (12.8%) 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 William Cox ride most for?

John Flint, with 216 rides since 2008 — 9% of the total. That pairing has won 18 (8.3%).

Is William Cox in form?

Too few rides in the last 14 days to read — 3 rides, which is not a sample we will draw a conclusion from.

What is William Cox's Fair A/E?

0.85, from 2,383 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.

Rides around 130 times a season, almost all on the flat, 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 16% (157 rides).

The read

The record is strongest at Leicester (12.8%, n=47), clear of the rider's 5.3% baseline. Rides on last-time-out winners have been a positive signal at 15.9% (n=157, Fair A/E 1.11), but horses returning fresh after 61+ days have been a poor signal at 2.3% (n=388, Fair A/E 0.53). The market has consistently overbet rides in big fields of 14 or more: 2.3% strike, Fair A/E 0.68 and −118.00 to a £1 stake over 220 rides — those runners underperform what the price implies. John Flint supplies 9% of the rides and edges the rider's average (8.3% vs 5.3%, A/E 1.28) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The rider also reads well on Heavy going (13.6%, n=44). The standout partner of the record: Glamorous Breeze (GB) — 5 wins from 26 rides together. Seasonally, the rider fires Jul–Aug.

Each tile is the record in that situation vs the 5.3% 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.
