A Dickman
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%".
Sent out around 60 runners a season, almost all on the flat, winning with 9% of them — beating the margin-free market read across the lifetime window (Fair A/E 1.11). With a claiming rider up the record reads 13% (62 runs).
The record is strongest at Catterick (18.2%, n=33), clear of the yard's 8.9% baseline. Runners with a claiming rider up have been a positive signal at 12.9% (n=62, Fair A/E 1.40). Daniel Tudhope rode 35% of the entries and matches the yard's average almost exactly (9%, A/E 1.13) — the partnership beats the margin-free market read. The yard also read well in Class 6 (14.9%, n=74). The record read poorly in Class 5 — 3.3% over 60 runners, 5.6pts below the baseline. The stable star of the record was Inter Vision (USA) — 8 wins from 61 runs for the yard.
Yard patterns
the angles behind the record · vs 8.9% baselineEach tile is the record in that situation vs the 8.9% baseline — descriptive splits with the sample always shown, not tips. Tiles under 30 runs render muted. Headgear figures use the true-first definition (first gear appearance in the captured career); returns are gear back on after a bare run. Claiming riders are runs where the booked rider carried a weight claim. Group / Graded covers pattern and listed races.

- What is A Dickman's Fair A/E?
- 1.11, from 190 runners 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.
